Febrile seizures are a common and often alarming occurrence in young children, typically associated with fever but not necessarily indicating a severe health problem. Despite their often-benign nature, febrile seizures require careful evaluation and management to ensure the child's health and provide peace of mind to concerned parents. In this article, we will explore what febrile seizures are, their causes, diagnosis, the role of EEG in their evaluation, treatment options, and how Clarity Medical's portable EEG devices are transforming the diagnostic landscape.   What is a Febrile Seizure? A febrile seizure is a convulsion triggered by fever in infants and...

What is Optic Neuritis? Optic neuritis is an inflammatory condition that affects the optic nerve, the nerve responsible for transmitting visual information from the eye to the brain. This inflammation can result in sudden vision loss, typically in one eye, accompanied by pain, especially during eye movement. While optic neuritis can occur at any age, it is most commonly diagnosed in young adults between the ages of 20 and 45 and is more prevalent in women than men.    What Causes Optic Neuritis? The exact cause of optic neuritis is often unclear, but it is frequently associated with autoimmune disorders,...
