Hi
With the limited information, looks like your child has generalized seizures with photosensitive ( seizures triggered by light)...
Avoid precipitating factors like flash lights, watching tv long hours and stress ( Physical/ Mental )
Encourage good sleep ( at least 7-8 hrs of undisturbed sleep), healthy life style modifications , good nutrition, exercise and meditation are better.
Based on the Classification and etiology of seizures, EEG and Neuro imaging, we select the anti - epileptic drugs..
Anti epileptic drugs on minimal dose which can control seizures, causes minimal side effects and are better tolerated on long term treatment, and it is better to take medications than getting a seizure which is more worrying...
