My eyes are pretty bad too, but I cannot read a book on LCD for more than an hour or so without feeling the strain. I'm so nearsighted that I read with my glasses on, otherwise I'd have to hold my reading material about 3-4 inches from my face or make the font huge.

I can do other activities on LCD screens for hours, but not read a book. And it's certainly not the brightness (I know how to use dimming apps when necessary). Perhaps it's psychological. I don't really care. All I know is I enjoy reading on eink vastly more than on tablets/phones/laptops. I don't think that reading on LCD is somehow more harmful to one's eyes. For me it's just a personal preference.
