I'm using Macbook Pro 13'' late 2011 and I installed Windows 7 on it. I've got eye strain after staring at the screen for about an hour. Note that i don't have any eye problems with external monitor (matted screen). I switched to different colour profiles such as Apple RGB, but it didn't work.
Surprisingly, Windows 8 on the same machine does not hurt my eyes at all. I guess the workaround is upgrading to Windows 8.
