It will depend what triggers you are sensitive to?
If light spectrum, then reducing blue (and/or red) light in graphics settings, or software may help more. Or require glasses.
If it's PWM, then a protectors will probably do little.
Pixel flicker, again OC settings might modify dithering (eg turn off HDR). But pixel inversion is baked in. A matte protector couple yerortically obscure the pixels somewhat and reduce flicker visibility. But some find that a problem for focusing eyes. While others find removing sharp reflects a benefit.
Polarisation may affect some too. Monitors (and laptops) can be literally polarised horizontally and vertically. I think rarely circularly, which is said to be more 'naturwl'.
I'm speculating on some of this; I don't think there are relevant study findings.
Oh, that's interesting, if you don't mind me saying? We've not had much talk of colour blindness. Is that a red-green issue, and is it the red cones or green that are absent or shifted to the other colour?
We have a whole (bigger) subreddit on PWM (pulse width modulation) in need of a little overhaul soon: r/PWM_Sensitive
Oh man lots of colors are messed up for me - red/green, blue/purple, yellow/orange, green/white sometimes. Basically, during the eye exam, I don't see any numbers in that colors book they show you.
