You really do need to get your eyes checked. Your probably hurting your retina by looking at a screen that bright in the dark.

I only use my Fire HD in dark ambient light. I use the PW's in bright light. I'm hoping the HDX will work equally well in bright and dark light without glare.
I'm ancient in age and am still seeing fine without any glasses both for near and far vision. I have a large cataract in one eye now for 9 years and I can see just fine through it. There is no question these Kindles have extended my vision and avoided glasses and a cataract operation. I am the eldest and practically the only patient at my Ophthalmologist's office getting by without glasses or surgeries.
For me Kindles have replaced eye glasses totally.
This new PW 2013 is the best yet. Fonts are better on it than any other eReader I've seen so far and make print books totally obsolete.
