I'm in the same boat. I don't think moving from CRT to LCD has anything to do with it.

(I already said this) What I think is, any interactive display vs printed material.
Yes, I tried to say that I have the same slight information retention problem with both CRT and LCD displays. The problem is so subtle that I can't really quantify it, so I can't say relatively speaking which of CRT or LCD is worse for me. I only know that both are worse than paper or E-Ink when I read.

As far as x-rays go, they were already long gone when I was a student in the early 1980's (when such things were still actually checked by technicians). It's been a long time since the old "Radiation King" TV sets of the 1960's, and I can't see x-rays being a problem today.
