I disagree on the getting tired and needing/wanting to increase the text size. If you are getting tired from reading because the text was too small, then you should have read with the bigger choice to begin with. Reading itself is stressful enough on the eyes, so why would you want to freewilly make it harder by choosing the smallest size possible? The smallest size that your eyes will allow you to barely read is a poor choice to comfortably read. Just pick a slightly bigger size. Less stess on eyes means it will take longer until your eyes get tired. You will also read faster when it is not a chore to decipher a teeny tiny font size - try it yourself.
