Liquid crystal display (LCD) screens refresh at a rate of 60 times per second, which can be perceived by concussed individuals who have photosensitivity, leading to computer intolerance. A non-LCD computer screen that refreshes at a much lower rate could relieve this photosensitivity and computer screen intolerance in patients with post-concussion syndrome (PCS). Twenty-nine patients with PCS, computer intolerance, and photosensitivity performed a reading task for a maximum of 30 min, with an LCD computer or a non-LCD device, and were given a comprehension test after completion of the reading task. The Sport Concussion Assessment Tool 3 was administered before and after each reading task. Symptom scores, amount of time spent reading, and performance on the comprehension tests were compared between the two devices. Patients also completed a self-report questionnaire of their subjective experience. The LCD screen computer produced significantly greater symptom exacerbation (median difference = 5, W = 315, p
