Computer monitor
 
I have been trying to figure out which is best for my vision. I know a high refresh rate is best, based on what people recommend for eye strain. I am studying LCD vs LED. I heard that CCFL LCD are also better for eye strain.
It seems to me that a matte screen is better than glossy, and that a large screen at more than 2 feet distance is better than small and close. Not sure what is too large. Clearly I will be dimming the screen, lowering brightness, and blocking blue light...

Since my vision is so central to my symptoms I want to be extra careful. So if any of you are using a screen that you feel comfortable with that would save me a lot of thinking and time.

Good news: when I minimize any vision work and cognitive, I am able to make significant strides in other areas (less dizziness, headaches, and I am able to exercise).

I don't think others experience with displays will have any bearing on your needs. You need to find a store where you can look at each screen for an extended period.

There may be a vocational rehab clinic that understands such issues and has the different displays for you to try.

OLED's have amazing color saturation and best contrast but they have big downside - organic LED's degrade fast unlike nonorganic. IPS are great too in terms of color reproduction and view angle but downside is max 60hz. But there are high refresh rate LCD's also.

I haven't looked into in a few years. I'm really happy with my Dell U2412M.

The brightness can be lowered to a pretty low level. It is 1920X1200 (16X10), which I prefer. Gets good reviews.

Lastly, I use F.Lux which is a desktop app that changes the color settings and makes it easier for me.

You can try googling for e-ink monitors.
