I've had no problem on the Aura HD. I set it pretty low (around 6%) in a dark room and don't notice any problems.

I guess I have more sensitive eyes. And I agree reading even printed books for long could cause strain or more correctly tiredness. But the lcd induced strain is pretty harsh comparatively in my opinion.
I don't have as huge a problem as some folks do with LCD, but it's certainly an issue above that of paper or unlit eInk for me. I find that higher ppi displays (on laptops & tabs) and cranking down the brightness (ScreenDim can help on Android tabs) can make a huge difference though, at least for me, making no where near as bad as a few years ago.
