VA vs IPS (Visual Snow) - Low Brightness Usage!

[DutchGuyMike]

Howdy great peeps,

I suffer from visual snow, which means that I see a great amount of static (swirling dots) in my vision.
This is the reason why I play games on usually (very) low brightness.

I have a 23 inch crap monitor at the moment and I really need something bigger so I can see more,
thus I am going to purchase a 34 inch 3440x1440 monitor, but I am not certain which display type..

VA is apparently better at contrast than IPS, but does this mean it's better for me because I play at low brightness?
Or is it the other way around? I'm not sure, I researched quite a bit but I can't find a definitive answer, sadly.

Any help would be REALLY appreciated!

Cheers,
Mike
