Hi, guys. I have had Acer Nitro 5 AN 515-54 (IPS, FullHD, 120 Hz) for several months. I can`t use it too long. My eyes are becoming dry and I am feeling eye strain and headache. I tried a bunch of ways. I used programs Iris, f.lux, changed contrast and brightness, used eyeglasses with blueblocker, changed scale, resolution and Hz. It didnt help. I never haven`t issues with other display. I have an old Dell Inspiron with TN and smartphone Xiaomi Redmi Note 4X with IPS. Maybe you have some ideas?

    Hi,
    You could try using Bluelight shield in Acer Quick Access program, open QA and switch on Bluelight Shield.

    I tried but no long. Maybe I will try again. But I dont think that is too different than f.lux, Iris or Windows night light

    It is the new screens nowadays. I have exactly the same symptoms as you describe here…
    These screens are awful for the eyes. Acer produces awful displays but will never admit it. They once told me to get an external screen. They are very much aware of the low quality of their screens. It is a dishonest brand. Stay away from these charlatans…
