Not a special monitor but special equipment to use a computer in our 
case. A student at Aston with photosensitive epilepsy obtained DSA 
funding for:

A polaroid screen filter to place in front of computer monitors - 
cost 154.32 - from DNCS in Greater Manchester - tel (01706) 625411
Polarising glasses with the polarisation in different directions in 
each lens - cost for two pairs 334.70 - from Boots

This had been recommended by an epilepsy association but may not suit 
every student I imagine. She was also recommended to use a 100 Hz 
monitors wherever possible although a 75 Hz one would suffice.
