To reduce afternoon glare on your wall-mounted TV, position the TV away from direct sunlight or windows with southwestern exposure. Use a tilting wall mount to angle the screen away from reflective light sources by about ten degrees. Incorporate blackout curtains, blinds, or window films to control ambient light entering the room. Using matte screen protectors can also decrease glare. Testing during peak sunlight hours reveals problem spots. Combining placement adjustments, tilt, and window treatments ensures optimal screen visibility and reduces eye strain caused by reflections.
