What should people with epilepsy be aware of when they are engaged in work?

  1. Frequent computer users If you use computers for a long time, or even work in front of a computer screen all day, it is easy to cause reflex epilepsy, whose triggering factors are flashing lights, colors of light and graphics. (1) The duration of each computer application should not be too long, and should be used after intermittent breaks; (2) Computer screens should be equipped with filters, and sunglasses can be worn to reduce the intensity of light; (3) Do not work when you are tired or emotionally unstable. The above measures are likely to prevent or reduce the adverse effects.  (2) Engage in driving workers The general principle is that those who have withdrawn their medication or whose medication has been reduced under complete control may be allowed to drive. Clinically, it has been observed that patients with epilepsy have accidents or seizures, mostly when they stop taking their own medication for no reason, when they are overly tired and distracted, and rarely when they are focused. However, this is not an issue that can be decided by the patient and the physician. The doctor should explain the condition and be approved by the relevant DMV before.  3, engaged in mental work-based workers such as scientific researchers, teachers, writers, etc., in addition to advise them to combine work and rest, appropriate participation in physical activities, no need to impose more restrictions.  4, engaged in field work, deep well work, work in the mine pit or join the military, should be recommended to change their careers. If there are special circumstances, we can ask the specialist to study with the relevant personnel and give an opinion.
