The flicker of a CRT monitor can cause various symptoms in those sensitive to it such as eye strain, headaches [9] in migraine sufferers, and seizures in epileptics. [10]As the flicker is most clearly seen at the edge of our vision there is no obvious risk in using a CRT, but prolonged use can cause a sort of retinal shock where the flickering is seen even when looking away from the monitor.
This can create a potentially noticeable 30 Hz (half frame rate) flicker. Temporal dithering tends to be most noticeable in darker tones, while spatial dithering appears to make the individual pixels of the LCD visible. [1] TFT panels available in 2020 often use FRC to display 30-bit deep color or HDR10 with 24-bit color panels.

Some LCD panels have native fiber-optic inputs in addition to DVI and HDMI. [155] Many LCD monitors are powered by a 12 V power supply, and if built into a computer can be powered by its 12 V power supply.
