Anyone know why increasing the refresh rate of your monitor decreases eyestrain? What exactly is the refresh rate anway?

Basically the refresh rate is how many times the image is drawn on screen per second. So like a 70 khz refresh rate means that the image is drawn 70 times every second. If it goes slower you see flickering, which is why you get eyestrain. I don't know the physiological reasons behind flickering leading to eyestrain.

LCD's don't update in the same way that a crt monitor would. A lcd stays the same until it changes color, but a crt needs a high refresh rate since it has to draw everything over again even if it's all the same color.

I don't know about the eye strain issue, but be careful when you change the rate, if it's not an ok rate for your monitor (CRT anyway) you can break it.

Surely the computer would not allow you to set such a setting that it would break it?

if you get "reforce" (google it), it will show you what each resolution of your monitor is capable of.
it will also let you reduce or increase (up to the max or you could have problems) the rate at each res. |
