There is a way to control it is go to Radio Shack and get
a Anti-Glare Computer Screen Cover (I am suspecting you
are using an old Computer Monitor) - make sure you measure
your monitor screen diagonally so you'll get the right size.
Best Buy "used" to carry them, but I've not seen them around
for a long time, but you might want to call around, or even
call some Computer Parts & Repair Shops - you might be able
to pick one up for cheaper. (NOTE: AVOID the green-shaded
anti-glare screen and get what appears to look like "black"
which is actually "ultraviolet" - the same as sunglasses)

Some people with Epilepsy just wears sunglasses.

The other option is to adjust your monitor so that the contrast
and brightness is DARKER and make your room slightly brighter
than normal instead of the other way around where the lights
of the room is dimmer and the computer is brighter.

With me - I put myself on a timer and limit myself online, but
ever since my sister gave me her expensive flat screen HUGE
monitor -- I've not had any problems at all because of the fine
quality. But when I go to my old monitor - it's a problem and
I just wear sunglasses and use a small table lamp near it, it's
cheaper that way.
