Self-injury is a complex behavior and symptom that results from a variety of factors. Adolescents who have difficulty talking about their feelings may show their emotional tension, physical discomfort, pain and low self-esteem with self-injurious behaviors. Here we report a case of self mutilation ocular injury in a young adolescent girl by scissor suffering from complex partial seizures with psycho non epileptic seizures.
