Get one with a 0.248 mm Dot Pitch. The smaller the dots (ahem, pixels), the better.

Get an LED monitor and forget about IPS. Those are mostly for professionals where their works depends very much on colour accuracy. Most of the media you can find on the internet will be useless anyway on an IPS monitor. Not to mention the price difference.

Most importantly take regular breaks (there's even a program that pops up every 20 minutes or so... forgot what it was called, something with "rave", and a sheep as an icon... Sorry, I forgot...).

For reading at night there's F.lux - http://stereopsis.com/flux/

Hope it helps.
