Hi.
first of all  i suggest to buy only LG monitor.
second of all you need to find response time no more than 4 miliseconds
and contrast as much as more for example: 1:3000 is good.
i can suggest a good model which i bought, LG L1900R, but its 9 inch.
i think 20-22 inch not so comfortable monitors ,maeby for movies they good, but for games i think better 19 inch.
I bought an Acer LCD from tigerdirect.com for my brother.  He loves it.  It was 20 or 22 inches.  Here are tigerdirects 20 and 21 inch LCDs:  http://www.tigerdirect.com/applications/category/category_slc.asp?Recs=10&Nav=|c:1410|&Sort=4

Do not forget to take breaks to relieve your eyes.  Try to focus on objects a distance.

Eyestrain break reminder programs are good:
