Comment on PSA: LED-Backlighting Can Cause Migraine Headaches by MLange

There appear to be lots of posts on the internet regarding screens that cause migraines. While there have been lots of reports about which screens cause migraines, i have not come across reports from people mentioning alternative screen models which work. Have any of you found new laptops or lcd screens which do not cause migraines? If so, what is model number? I found a report online from some guy in Russia who built an incandescent LCD, but i don’t have time to experiment with that at the moment. I am not interested in what people think will work or what their theories are on what should work; rather, i want to know what people have tried that has worked, from experience- this to me is the gold standard.
Also, i think it’s worth mentioning that a screen’s refresh rate can be limited by the type of video card that is used. I’m not super computer savy, but it seems that a monitor that is hooked up to one computer and not cause migraines on that one can cause migraines when hooked up to another computer with a different video card.
Lastly, there are lots of posts out there about is topic, and there are lots of bright people who are affected by this problem. Perhaps we can consolidate our resources and start achieving more effective solutions to this problem if we could create some kind of group dedicated to practical solutions to this problem. People in the rest of society are skeptical of our problem and frankly we are the only ones driven by a need to fix this problem, so perhaps by looking to each other we can achieve a common goal that will, no doubt, allow us to live fuller and richer lives.

Thanks! We had a ton of fun while they were here. The Christmas trees were actually just ice cream cones. We were going to try to bake brownies inside them, but ran out of time, so we just decorated the cones.
