The present disclosure provides a method and an electronic device capable of performing a display adjustment. The method comprises: obtaining a first brightness value corresponding to light flux to enter user eyes at a first time; obtaining a second brightness value corresponding to light flux to enter user eyes at a second time later than the first time; determining whether a brightness difference between the first brightness value and the second brightness value is greater than a threshold value; and in events where the brightness difference between the first brightness value and the second brightness value is greater than the threshold value, enabling an adjustment mode of the electronic device, wherein the adjustment mode comprises increasing a transition time period of a transition from the first brightness value to the second brightness value and adjusting either of both of brightness of a backlight and brightness of a screen content according to the transition from the first brightness value to the second brightness value with the increased transition time.
