It is that light that makes it possible for me to read for hours per day. I love the sharp contrast that the light gives.
In a dark room, I have the light at 10-12 to start with, and turn it down as my eyes adjust to 8-9. That is in a totally dark room.
Even as a young person, I needed a LOT of light to read. I'm pushing 60, and have worn glasses since I was 5-6. I wear a Progressive lens now, and can read the Oasis at night in bed without my glasses with the screen 7-8 inches from my eyes.
Once something is past 12" away from my eyes, without correction I am legally blind.
