I am studying this problem. The main cause can be strong backlight. BL2411PT has min 83cd/m2 which is for people with eyestrain problem too much.
A lot of people has problem with IPS and TN are ok.
I have same experience with IPS monitor regarding eye strain, especially burning eyes.
I bought HP Z24i which has no PWM, minimal brightness 60cd/m2 and soft AG coating. I tested it for two weeks and then I had to return it because of eye strain problem. Everything was ok, but the image was too...
