I would just note that the former paper just references other ‘studies’ and summarizes issues, and the latter paper is over 5 years old and references some pretty ancient devices (the original Paperwhite, probably 2nd generation Fire HD, iPad 1, Sony reader).

Still the first paper is full of some delightful techno-babble:

Quote:
Blinking and squinting
Blinking aids maintenance of a normal ocular surface, with most blinks instigating a cycle of secretion, dispersal, evaporation and drainage of tears.[32]
Reference [32] turns out to be a paper entitled “Blinking and Tear Break-Up During Four Visual Tasks”. Glad someone is studying this, and not me.
