CAE Childhood Absence Epilepsy

Childhood absence epilepsy (CAE) is an epilepsy syndrome with absence seizures that begin in young children. During an absence seizure, the child stares blankly and is not aware or responsive. The child’s eyes may roll up briefly or the eyes may blink. Some children have repetitive movements like mouth chewing.
