Even the best cfls are crap for those with poor sight though. I suspect its the choice of frequencies in the
phosphor or the flicker effect.


LEDs seem better.


I suspect its the diffuse source making the shadows less distinct and hence reducing edge contrast that makes it worse
for people with poor eyesight.


Dunno, they arent really any more diffuse than a normal frosted incandescent.

I doubt too many use the clear incandescents for that.
