    I have asus g551vw fy212t laptop & I'm concerned about pwm. I read article from laptopmedia.com & they said pwm is harmful for your eyes. The display for this laptop is LG LP156WF6-SPB5. Is pwm really that harmful on your eyes?

    It seems that a minority of people claim they suffer from eye strain from it. It shouldn't be harmful though.

    Not a scientific study but they mention it at 3:04
