You might look into QLED, RLCD, or E-ink monitors. There’s a lot of posts online about how they reduce eye strain or that you just don’t feel the “glare” that you normally get from looking at a screen.

You should talk about this with an ophthalmologist. It could depend also on the lighting. Check that too.
