Default Fluorescent - my arch nemesis of the lighting world

So, I have been improving again since my setback and pretty optimistic that I am within week(s) from making another attempt at returning to work on an easeback schedule.

Learned quite a bit from last time and while off again this time and I think I made quite a few corrections and am better prepared this time.

One thing that I have yet to correct is fluorescent lighting, my work building is full of it. Within seconds of being in a commercial setting my eyes get strained and tired pretty quickly. I can continue to function but it's uncomfortable and I tend to look downwards.

Any suggestions on how to tackle this issue? I can likely get some of the bulbs above my space taken out. My optometrist suggested using a tall table lamp with an incadescent bulb shinning above my work space to help wash out the flicker that I may be picking up. Any other suggestions? I will likely try a few different color tinted glasses/UV spectrum filters.
