Books aren't printed on pure white paper though. I don't think reading on pure white paper would be a pleasant experience. If you compare printer paper, which is generally more white than a printed book, you'd see what I mean.

I've used Kindles since 2009, and have poor vision. The front lit models have been wonderful for me. What helps me is to increase the line spacing, resulting in more white space, which seems to increase contrast. Even with the older models that lacked front lighting, wide line spacing was more helpful for me than using a larger font.
