From my past personal experiences I can tell you that strobe lights and light balls have caused me to have a seizure at a dance. Everyone is different and differently affected , where as coloured flahing lights didnt affect me.

A test done in epilepsy monitoring units is done with a strobe light.So there must be some correlation.
