However, that doesn't mean that when people state that they prefer reading on an e-ink screen to an LCD screen due to "eye strain," that there isn't something to that...it's just that what they call "eye strain" isn't (again, for most people) the medical condition known as eye strain. But that doesn't mean it's not something real..
Of course it's real...It REALLY means that they should go get their aging eyes checked out by a doctor, and accept the fact that it is probably time for reading glasses. Instead of trying to deny that they are aging by blaming a LCD screen!

Nobody likes getting old, but like it or not, it IS going to happen whether you deny, or ignore try to ignore it & blame something else for a fact that you cannot change.
