Default Questionable LED claim

In a few months, I'm thinking by May or June of 2010, I'm thinking of buying the LG-42LH90, a 42" 240 Hz LED 1080p TV to replace my then 3 year old 42" Sharp Aquos which has developed some ghostly backlight bands that are noticeable during certain color spaces in scenery and mostly when the camera pans horizontally.

Anyway, one of the reviews for this TV kind of struck me as total bullshit or at least highly questionable. The reviewer states that due to the high contrast levels that LED-backlit TVs have, in this case, 2,000,000:1, that it has damaged his eyesight. Yeah, that's what I thought. He claims because we're looking directly into the LED backlight that it's just as damaging as looking directly into LED flashlights, for example. And so I'm thinking, SURELY someone in the TV manufacturing world would have thought of this potential problem before putting such dangerous technology out on the market.

So has anyone else heard these concerns/complaints before, or what this guy just full of it?
