You can get some relief u/s. 80DD of the act. For that you need to obtain certificate from : (i) a Neurologist having a degree of Doctor of Medicine (MD) in Neurology (in case of children, a Paediatric Neurologist having an equivalent degree); or (ii) a Civil Surgeon or Chief Medical Officer in a Government hospital.
