It is the cells in the brain that are affected.
Surprisingly and fortunately the brain does not seem to get affected by epilepsy.
Epilepsy is a disease caused by trauma to a spesific part of your brain, you can however be born with it as well, but it's still the same part (cell) of the brain that's damaged/ineffective.

Anyone can be affected by Epilepsy. About 1 in every 200 people have Epilepsy. Epilepsy is diagnosed when you have recurring seizures. However almost everyone can have some sort of a seizure at some point in their lifetime, and never have one again. There are many causes for Epilepsy and many forms. Epilepsy is basically a catch-all term for the many forms that there are.
Only about 3% to 5% of people who have epilepsy are affected by flashing lights, so sunglasses make no difference to other people who have epilepsy. Their seizures are caused by other factors.Only about 3% to 5% of people who have epilepsy are affected by flashing lights, so sunglasses make no difference to other people who have epilepsy.

The cell membrane is the first part of a cell that is affected by changes in pH. A significant change in pH can alter the structure and function of the cell membrane, leading to disruptions in transport processes and cell signaling.
The brain is the only area affected by Epilepsy. As the brain controls many other parts of the body, other things can then be indirectly affected, like the nervous system, which is why shaking is sometimes associated with epilepsy. Seizures affect different people in different ways, so not everyone shakes when they have a seizure.
November is National Epilepsy Awareness Month.
PLS affects a part of the neuron called the cell body (or soma). Specifically, it is the cell bodies of upper motor neurons that are affected.
The cell membrane is greatly affected by plasmolysis. Plasmolysis occurs when a cell loses water and the cell membrane detaches from the cell wall, causing the cell to shrink and the membrane to pull away from the cell wall.
About 1 in every 200 people, that is 0.5%, have epilepsy. Epilepsy is the tendency to have recurring seizures. In other words people who have epilepsy can have seizures regularly. Everyone has the potential to have seizures in their lifetime, but may only do so once or twice, and so they are not classed as having epilepsy.
There are many kinds of epilepsy with many causes and triggers. People with a form known as photosensitive epilepsy can have their seizures triggered by things like flashing lights, strobe lights, fast moving video screens etc. Some of them could be affected by films if there is a lot of changing images and flashing. However, only about 3% to 5% of people who have epilepsy have the photosensitive form. So while it is widely thought that flashing lights can trigger seizures in anyone that has epilepsy, most people who have epilepsy are not affected by that at all.
