| Class II | Rare disabling seizures (“almost seizure free”) |
| A: Initially free of disabling seizures but rare seizures now B: Rare disabling seizures since surgery C: More than rare disabling seizures since surgery, but rare seizures for the last 2 years D: Nocturnal seizures only | |
| Class III | Worthwhile improvement |
| A: Worthwhile seizure reduction B: Prolonged seizure-free intervals mounting to greater than half the followed up., But not<2 years | |
