1. Apparatus for preventing photosensitive epilepsy in a user having a right eye which has a right peripheral visual field of view and a right central visual field of view, and a left eye which has a left peripheral visual field of view and a left central visual field of view, the apparatus comprising: a first rim; a first light source which emits light carried by said first rim; a second rim; a second light source which emits light carried by said second rim; said first and second rims positionable on the user so that the user's right eye looks through said first rim and said light from said first light source is directed toward the right peripheral visual field of view but not toward the right central visual field of view, and the user's left eye looks through said second rim and said light from said second light source is directed toward the left peripheral visual field of view but not toward the left central visual filed of view; wherein said first light source reduces an intensity difference between light received by the right peripheral visual field of view and light received by the right central visual field of view, and said second light source reduces an intensity difference between light received by the left peripheral visual field of view and light received by the left central visual field of view; and, said reductions in intensity difference preventing photosensitive epilepsy.
