An electronic device includes a display screen, a display control circuit, an active optical component, and an optical control circuit. The active optical component is located below the display screen. The display control circuit is configured to control refreshing of the display screen, and output a synchronization signal to the optical control circuit. The optical control circuit is configured to receive the synchronization signal, and control the active optical component to start light emission after a predetermined first delay that is after a moment corresponding to the synchronization signal to enable the display control circuit to refresh to one row of at least one row on the display screen corresponding to the active optical component after a predetermined second delay that is after the active optical component completes light emission.
