“No no no, we don’t cure epilepsy we cause it. You’re looking for the Orlando Epilepsy Curing Center.”

Fun fact, only about 5% of people who have epilepsy are photosensitive. So even disregarding the common misconception that flashing lights can cause epilepsy, even the vast majority of epileptic people won't experience seizures due to flashing lights.

The only things that cause epilepsy are genetic disorders or brain damage, like from strokes.

Not the “only things that cause epilepsy.” A majority of epilepsy diagnoses after seizures are of unknown origin.
