I have extreme light sensitivity. On an iPhone I can use settings>accessibility>display and text size>Reduce white point [set to 100%] to reduce screen brightness to about 20% of the minimum possible with the brightness slider. Is there a similar option on MacBooks?
Thanks

All the Macs, including Macbook Pros, Macbook Airs, etc. have a Display System preferences pane and there is a slider you can move to reduce or increase screen brightness, right on down to a display that is virtually totally dark. There is also a setting to "automatically" adjust screen brightness based on ambient lighting, you can turn that off so the display follows your instructions only.
If you can get to an Apple Store or Best Buy or other similar store you can see this yourself on a display model.
I don’t know what is available, but it would be in the Accessibility System Preferences.
