I have 20-20 vision and have used CRTS for 11+ years without any problems. I received my first LCD 3 weeks ago (Dell 1907FPv which is supposed to be a good monitor) and after 4 hours, I literally went and had my eyes examined. It took 4 days for my sight to get back to 20-20. I have turned the brightness way down, and when I put up vertical & horizontal line test patterns and move them between a high end CRT and the LCD, the difference on my eyes is drastic. (I can't stand to look at the test pattern on the LCD for more than 30 seconds).
I used to work on motion picture projection systems, so I am sensitive to images that are not crisp and clear.
I think this idea that LCDs cause less eye strain is WAY off the mark, but maybe it is just this particular LCD model.
