I'm a voracious reader on my smart phone. I've never had problems with the backlight hurting my eyes, but I understand others have. I would be interested to know if the newer model phones/pads wouldn't be a big improvement over those of a few years ago. If those that had eye problems with the older devices, and chose the e-ink team, wouldn't do just fine with the newer ones.
I know that my reading app has many functions to dim backlighting, change the background/foreground...I even do the triple tap at night with all the lights in the room off so I don't bother my wife with the light. (the triple tap puts it in reverse/night mode - white letters on a black background - and with the dimming set all the way to zero you wouldn't be able to tell it was on more than a few feet away but it is plenty bright for my reading)
