I’d recommend adding bias lighting to your monitor. It won’t make the monitor less bright, but it’ll light up the wall behind your monitor so there’s less of a contrast between the wall and your monitor, which reduces eye strain.
- nottorp 6y agoI tried that but looked like too much effort. Instead, I never turn off the room lights any more when using monitors. Seems good enough since oled is coming.
- freeqaz 6y agoI use a normal desk lamp and point it at the wall behind my monitors. Super easy, cheap, and effective. https://smile.amazon.com/dp/B083DG5CK1/ https://smile.amazon.com/dp/B083DG5CK1/

- gattr 6y agoSame! I do it for both the monitor and the TV, with two cheap "Ingared" lamps from IKEA; can recommend.
