I am no doctor, and I know very little about your illness and symptoms. However! I am nonetheless going to lend my wisdom!
I used to get migraines frequently; a few times a week. I also spend an enormous chunk of my day in front of computer screens. I work as a web developer/designer, so 8 hours a day I'm staring at code, and the rest of the time is spent staring at WoW, my photographs, my personal websites, and of course, the Lounge. I would wager that I spend, at most, one hour a day away from computers. Weary eyes for the win!
Anyway, the moral of my story is this. I bought an LCD monitor at the same time my office did, and the change was wonderful. I have used CRTs for fifteen years (and I am only 19, holy crap!), but the switch to LCD has seemed to make an impact on my migraines. They have dropped to one a month.
Could your panic attacks have anything to do with visual strain?

Doubtful on the visual strain.
I'm also a migraine sufferer though they are very sporadic, had lots of them in February, though I've finally found meds that can control them, haven't had one since May now. Average about 8-14 a year though so eh.
Might be that I haven't been taking my meds. Don't have a daily pill holder thing and I honestly forget if I have taken them or not, it's bad to take to much of the med though so if I can't remember I don't take another one. So Treesh will get me one of the pill thingies today and she will help make sure I take them.
Still can't launch WoW on my machine right now. So doesn't look like Molten Core round 2 will happen tonight for me. :(
