This might seem like a dumb question but, I got a portable 16" 1080p OLED display to bring around with my gaming laptop. Model is ASUS MQ16AHE.
There appears to be no option, or prompt, to run a "pixel refresh" screensaver to even out pixel wear. I've been using it for weeks now. Looked through the settings too, nothing there.

Is there a third-party tool I can run?

You can always run one of the "anti burn in / stuck pixel fixer" youtubes on a loop for a few hours.
 
i remember when plasma was still a thing, ppl asked me for something like the pixel refresh they saw on the sony tvs,
and i know someone had made a video file with changing colors/patterns etc when i did a web search, but that was like 10y ago.
 
Providing the exact model number would have helped us research the features and documentation for this device.

Now we just have to guess. :(

My "guess" is twofold. (1) There is the option to manually run this but it is hidden deep in the menu system and/or (2) like every OLED monitor and TV I have seen, it is enabled by default and runs automatically, as is the case with this ASUS MQ16AHE as noted on page 3.7 where it says to "always leave it on".
