Abstract
An eleven-year-old boy suffering from retinitis pigmentosa, deafness, and aphasia was referred to Basir Eye Clinic, Tehran, Iran, for visual evoked potential (VEP) and electroretinography (ERG) recordings. He left the laboratory on foot, but after fifteen minutes, he suffered a seizure. The condition was managed, and the diagnosis of a psychogenic non-epileptic seizure was reached.
