I believe I have shown that it is scientifically proven that light before and after reflection is different, or rather can be different. No, not everything you are seeing is created equal - not quite as simple as "if you see, light hits the retina." It is even possible too fool your brain into seeing colors that are not there, and other optical illusions. And that starts at the retina, as the retina itself is part of your brain. Or more specifically from Wikipedia:

In vertebrate embryonic development, the retina and the optic nerve originate as outgrowths of the developing brain, specifically the embryonic diencephalon; thus, the retina is considered part of the central nervous system (CNS) and is actually brain tissue. It is the only part of the CNS that can be visualized non-invasively.

Wikipedia is telling the truth there, but you would have to verify that with a scientifically acceptable source.
I prefer my lighted eink reader, because no matter how hard I try, my tablets never quite look the same to my eyes. And I tried to see if a bigger tablet is more comfortable to read on, not to prove or disprove a point.
