7 best monitors for eyes

Expertex experts.com analyzed the modern market and prepared a rating of the safest monitors for the eyes. In this context, the importance of such parameters as flicker-free illumination, brightness and contrast, pixel pitch, frame and line refresh rate of the image and so on is greatly increased. All of the above examples are equipped with means for fixing on the wall, support Flicker-Free technology (flicker-free lighting), allow for vertical position adjustment and 90-degree rotation (except for the 40-inch PHILIPS monitor), and have color calibration tools.
