I can read for 3+ hours this way, with no eye-watering, bloodshot, etc. I may be able to read longer without the eyestrain, but 3 hours of reading puts me at about 2am, which means I'm a tired zombie the next day.

Hey, but a tired zombie needs watering and bloodshot eyes!
But now you put it that way.... Yes, if I read longer than my hour or two, I will get watering and bloodshot eyes. And, technically, that is caused by reading. As I always read on my LCD screen at light, it's caused by reading on a LCD screen. But not so much because of the screen, but because of lack of sleep
