I've been thinking in that. On the other hand, I have both an iPhone 4s and iPod3 and the iPhone is way more aggressive on my eyes than the iPad. It doesn't make any sense at all!
As you stated, I believe I have several issues playing simultaneously, and that's one of the reasons it's particularly hard to pinpoint the root causes of my pain.
I've heard claims that not all Apple screens are created equally, especially around the iPad3 time, some of them having different amounts of PWM than other batches (only plagued older models 2012-2013), maybe dithering depending on screen type, etc. My 2015 Macbook Pro has a Samsung screen I believe, maybe find a friend who owns one/find a way to test one in a safe environment.
If all else fails go the small CCFL monitor route/refurbished 2009-2010 laptop.
I am thinking of picking up an HP 8530w I see on eBay. I only need it for reading.
I have a pair of FL-41 tinted (this tint was specifically created to help migraine sufferers in fluorescent lights) sunglasses from Axon Optics. They work VERY well if I am in a mall or warehouse with harsh lighting but they don't seem to prevent headaches when looking at a screen.
My headache type is a bilateral cervical headache which shoots from the back of my neck to behind my eyes and is accompanied by motion sickness and some odd epileptic overlap with changes in time perception and sometimes deja vu and jamais vu as well as sensory changes.
Thank you so much for checking!
I'm talking to a guy on eBay and we are trying to determine if the screen assemblies he has are the old CCFL backlit style. (He doesn't know, and I was worried that some refurbs would swap for a new panel)
JTL Oh. Forgot to mention my mother bought me the TheraSpecs indoor+outdoor bundle ($300) Due to being sick and all that I really haven't had a chance to test them.
Today I decided to go into town to where my father works (which has ok but not the best fluorescent lighting, office building constructed circa 2000-2005) The good news is that I got no headaches whatsoever - which is big news for me.
This is an old post. I would like to know what is your current opinion about Theraspecs glasses. Do they really help out with regard to fluorescent lighting? Right now I am quite okay as to computers, I seem to be able to use pretty much anything, but fluorescent lamps in the office are killing me. I have some cheap blue light-blocking UVEX glasses and wonder what the Theraspecs differ by. Do they contain more than one filter or just a longpass one? Has anyone tried to look at what light they actually let pass, using a spectrometer? Thanks.
I found Theraspecs helped with lights, but not with displays. Since I have other mechanisms for dealing with lights, I returned them (they were pretty pricey).
AGI That was a long time ago. I now have less problems from fluorescent lights with the special medicine I mentioned.
I still have them but I suspect I scratched the darker glasses by accident

Something to try at some point. Unfortunately I don't have a spectrometer.
Gurm I have other mechanisms for dealing with lights
Which other mechanisms? Simply avoiding using "bad" lamps? Thanks.
@Gurm @JTL How about reading on paper wearing the Theraspecs? Is it pleasant? It certainly depends also on the brightness in the room, but I wonder how much light is blocked by the filter (multiple filters?)?
Gurm Wow, then if you add a fake palm tree, you will feel like on a tropical beach, have you tried? :-)
Jokes apart, on top of those tricks do you wear Theraspecs glasses? I did not try with a wide-brim hat, but what I noticed, and my spectrometer confirmed, is that even if I turn the closest ceiling lamp off I still get harmful light from the other lamps a couple of meters away. Even if I have a a window wall on one side which is closer to my desk than the other lamps, the brightest features the spectrometer shows are from the fluorescent tubes :-(
Wrap7c uses the Ventus frame by 7Eye. Tint is nothing special from my understanding. Has the number 47 in it I think. it's pinkish again I think. Search Google for florescent lights and migraines. It should show up.
