BenQ EW EW2440L 24-Inch Screen LED-Lit Monitor

The obvious triggers here were the computer monitors I was staring at and surrounding lighting conditions. But to do my job there was no way of getting around that. PWM, the technology nearly all LED monitors use to reduce the brightness from 100%, makes the backlight of a monitor turn on and off rapidly, creating a flicker effect that is mostly imperceptible but can cause eyestrain and headache in those who are sensitive to it. Some people suggest turning the brightness to 100% to avoid PWM, but that creates a high-contrast situation that is a migraine trigger in itself.

This monitor does not use PWM at all. There is additional circuitry added to allow it to adjust the brightness through direct current (DC) instead. This makes a world of difference in the overall comfort of viewing the monitor. Even my non-migraine-suffering coworkers have commented that these monitors are noticeably easier on the eyes. Using these monitors I am able to work pain-free and without sunglasses
