Occipital Lobe Seizure: Occipital Lobe Seizures arise from the occipital lobe of the brain, which sits at the back of the brain, just below the parietal lobe and just behind the temporal lobe. The occipital lobe is the main center of the visual system. Occipital lobe epilepsy accounts for about 5-10% of all epilepsy. This kind of epilepsy can be either idiopathic (of unknown, presumed genetic, cause) or symptomatic (associated with a known or suspected underlying lesion). Benign occipital epilepsies usually begin in childhood and are discussed elsewhere.
