This is how your eyes normally read letters on a continuously lit display. It's one smooth motion.


This is how your eyes read letters with PWM LEDs. In staccato, the opposite of smooth.


Which display seems less stressful to your eyes?
Have you used a Forma and gotten eye strain? What I want to know is PVM a real problem or is a big deal being made by what some perceive as a problem that's really not a problem.
