This report is to draw attention to an issue with the phillips monitor which is fda approved for digital pathology sign out.Our department is implementing this but the monitor is entirely too bright.I have prior eye issues and must have a dimmer light source.Phillips has been entirely uncooperative in providing a solution to this problem and will not provide instructions on how to decrease the brightness of the monitor.I have had to discontinue the use of the monitor due to continued headache and eye strain.I cannot imagine i am the only pathologist on the planet with this issue so phillips really needs to be more attuned to this; retina burning brightness.Fda safety report id# (b)(4).
