Epilepsy is a chronic dynamic medical problem requiring long-term treatment. In addition to seizures, patients with epilepsy often face a wide range of limitations in school, social situations, and employment, primarily because of cognitive impairments, especially of memory and attention. Cognitive rehabilitation therapy to restore patients’ ability to deal with routine activities of daily lives has been used for years.
