Feel like eye strain from MacBook Air M1 has damaged my life

Forgive the hyperbole, but I have searched for ages for the cause of my headaches, fatigue and facial inflammation. I looked at everything from vitamin D deficiency to thyroid issues. All tests came back normal.

I began to realise that the pain, tiredness and inflammation were mainly coming from the eye area. Until I read up on it, I never realised that eye strain could cause nasty symptoms and I also read up on 'Cybersickness'.

I recently bought an external monitor and I no longer feel a wreck after only 10 minutes like when I was looking at my MacBook Air M1.

I am not saying the Air M1 has caused all the problems in my life, but the symptoms have felt like being constantly 'unwell'. I am unsure of the cause: temporal dithering, PWM or motion sickness. All I know is I feel better with the external monitor.

Where do I go from here? I will continue to use the external monitor but I sometimes have go out to work, which will require me to look at my MacBook again (which I am dreading). Suggestions welcome. Is it worth giving the Air M2 a try?
