Eye Blinking and TV suggestions?

[Betty04]

Anyone know the best TV option to minimize blinking? Low or high refresh rates? LCD or Plasma? Thanks!

Last fall my husband and I did a ton of research on this topic and it seemed the overwhelming thought was LCD was better. I think it does not refresh, or if it does it is low. We bought a new LCD for the family room and a new monitor for his computer. I think it has been a good investment. His tic is gone for right now, but when it is here he does much better on our TV. He could be having a low tic day, then go next door where they have and older TV and come back blinking so bad. The same goes for when he is at his afterschool and they watch a movie, I will notice an increase in the tic.

I am not sure the reason for not going with plasma, but at the time the research pointed towards LCD.

 

You might want to do a search on the ACN board to see if some old research comes up. I feel sure I got the information from this board.

 

Good luck. I know how hard it is to try and figure all of this out and help our little ones.
