I tell my eye doc I need special glasses for the computer, these are anti-glare an etc. The problem with glasses has to be design for where the distance from the LCD monitor screen is. The tablet or e-reader LCD panel you'll be closer too. A lot of variables to have to consider. I only mention all of this because you say you get headaches. I was getting that too and way to much grey wash.
It must be my eye sight is not what it used to be. I used to read a lot more but I was getting headaches when reading paper backs in low light even though I have prescription eye glasses. I bought the nook so I can enlarge the font; that helps but similar to paper, I still get headaches when reading in low light. I don't have problems though reading with LCD computer monitor for extended period of time. That is one of the reasons that I want to buy a LCD tablet for reading and for surfing the web.
