You don't speak for most. Read this:

The vast majority of people have no problem with either technology. But some small percentage will have a problem with either tech.
Using a damaged out of focus CRT is bad or using a refresh rate that flashes can drive you nuts.
But I just like darXoul, much prefer good CRT. I have been using them over 20 years, no eye strain.
Got my shiny new LCD. Eyestrain almost instantly. I had eye pain for a weak until I sold it. Part of the problem is definitely excess brightness and I bough one of the worse offenders, the 2405. The thing is Max brightness for a CRT is about 100cd, this is about the minimum in most LCDs and they look like crap at minimum. I run my CRT much less than max, LCD simply don't go that low.
Viewing angles were really really bad. There was lag, ghosting etc and lots and lots of eyestrain. I have no problem with my 75Hz refresh at 1600x1200 CRT
Just accept that not everyone is the same.
