Optical Illusions
A MyEpilepsyTeam Member asked a question 💭

Hi everyone.
When looking at anything with a bold contrasting pattern, for example..clothing/furnishings with black and white stripes or a check pattern etc, it creates what I can best describe as an optical illusion for me. The pattern appears to be moving. Just curious if anyone else experiences this?

Sounds like visual dislexia to me..My youngest daughter has it and she's 24.

I get this occasion when I'm reading a book but not so much with patterns and stripes.
