Higher refresh rates produce less flicker from the refresh which results in
easier viewing. Don't forget that a good monitor is also part of the
equation. Even a Radeon 7200 can't do 100Hz if you have an old 72Mhz monitor.

Trust me, they are less strain on the eyes. I just got eye glasses two years
ago, and it makes a world of difference having a 19" NEC monitor and a Radeon
card. Sharp, clear viewing as well as lots of screen real estate! :-)
Now I can work all day on the computer and not get eye strain.
1600x1200 @ 85Mhz is indeed a treat.
