My friend who has seizures uses a old CRT because of the faster re-fresh rate. LCD's only refresh 60-80mhz, and in general are not very customizable. He says he has CRT set to 120 and while he still gets seizures, it does help reduce the frequency.

Of course he could be wrong, but that is how he explained it to me. *shrug*
