Reducing eye strain on iMac 27'' ?

Hello everyone, I got a 27'' iMac and I absolutely love it but I can't put the brightness very high for too long because it starts hurting my eyes... Even when the brightness is low it starts hurting my eyes after a while... Any way to prevent that? Thanks!

If low "brightness" or higher brightness causes you eye strain...are you sure you don't need glasses? Or if you do wear glasses, maybe you need a new prescription.

Maybe it's not the brightness...maybe it's the "native" resolution of the 27" display...making things a bit on the smaller side for viewing, which is causing the eye strain.

Just taking a guess,
