i generally read using a lamp, not the sidelighting, and i have no troubles even at night by compartively dim lighting.

i have used the lighting on a few occasions when i wanted to read in total darkness, and i was not bothered by the difference in luminosity of the sides compared to the middle (on the lower level) ; i was noticeable but it didn't prevent me from reading.

sometimes i also use the lighting at my desk when (for example) i am fixing typos that i marked with notes while reading. the light is behind me so the 700 on the desk is in my shadow ; it is still legible, but i find it uncomfortable to adapt my eyes back and forth between the bright computer screen and the not-backlit-and-in-shadow 700 screen. so i turn on the lights to avoid adjusting my eyes so much when i'm glancing back and forth quickly. it makes it more comfortable, and again i'm not bothered by the uneven lighting.
