Severe Eye Strain due to OLED PWM Dimming

We can still use the later iPhones but we need to know what are good lcd screen replacement options because some brands still offer lcd screen replacements for later iPhones. We would just have to pay a bit more to replace the screen when we buy a new iPhone. My question is what brands are the best for iPhone lcd screen replacements for likes of iPhone 12,13,14 etc?

I am a migraine sufferer like 2-3 a year but lately its 2 a week and i suspect my iphone13 pro screen, i have had for 2 years but recently did a update- is there any answers on how to improve this? I lowered white point, have night mode on and also “limit frame rate” in settings, so its stuck at 60 and cant go down to 10 (which apparently makes it worse for us) this is the only thing i can guess thats changed for my triggers - im due for a new phone what type should i get to avoid Oled screen. I thought having a bright screen was a trigger so i always have it so low but seems that could also cause this? Pls help. Its getting ridiculous

I had the iPhone 8 then went to the 12, lasted a few weeks and got rid of it due to the unbearable headaches, then went to the 11, all good. Went to the 15, (great phone) lasted a few weeks then the severe headaches and eye pain came back, it’s really bad, now back on the 11. If all that’s required is a dimming feature that Samsung has why wouldn’t Apple? Really shocking, when the 11 stops being supported and it’s not fixed it’ll have to be Samsung, assuming they have really dealt with the issue.

I had severe eye strain and headaches after using XS Max. I had to switch to iPhone 11, but in a few years it is going to be obsolete. If Apple keeps ignoring people sensitive to PWM, they would just stop using their products, as I would do, because they wouldn’t give me any option.

We're a relatively small group, but I've read 4% or people are sufferers. And I think there are probably more people that are milder sufferers who just have minor eye strain and live with it, without realising it is to do with their phone screen. You wouldn't think it was a big ask for apple to keep just one LCD screened phone in the range. The new SE 4 is going to be oled when it's out. They vaunt oled as being better, but I wonder if it's just a cost saving to have the whole range as oled?

Apple to not acknowledge this issue is really troubling, I can get flicker free bulbs from Philips, TVs with zero PWM but soon there won't be a single Apple phone without it. It's a real shame the iPhone 11 will be my last iPhone unless something changes.

same, been using 8plus and last macbook using lcd screen, experiencing no discomfort, love them both. thinking to switch to new iphone currently but is sensitive to pwm flicker, really hope they can launch a big lcd screen iphone again

So don't use them.

Yes, I just put in the request. if everyone puts in the same request, maybe Apple will fix this.Feedback - iPhone - Apple

let's all just keep submitting a request to apple until they fix it. Hopefully if enough people need this fixed, they will do it! Product Feedback - Apple

For me it's not worth it. It will probably get worse with more use. Please send a message to Apple ask them to provide a solution for us PWM dimming sufferers. Product Feedback - Apple

Post this issue on apple's feedback please. With enough people commenting on this, maybe they will do something about it. Feedback - iPhone - Apple

iPhone has not corrected this problem yet. Please Post a request here Feedback - iPhone - Apple

lets rally together.

Please consult an opthalmologist for your eye issue.

That is not possible.
