Most LED bulbs give me a headache. Bad LED bulbs cause 'strobing' in my vision which is even worse.
Give Philips a try? May just be worth the premium. Hopefully a standard like the one mentioned in a comment below is put into place.
Then there's the question of whether the color emission mix is designed so that your eye perceives it as an approximation of a blackbody spectrum. That's an issue of matching doping to our biology and one of those things that I think is just about settled in decent quality bulbs.
Once the doping mix and the quality of circuitry is fixed, the incandescent lightbulb is at best an historical curiosity.
