I have to say I've never heard of this problem before, and my personal experience is just the opposite. Even using old unlit ereaders back in 2011, I found eink better for my eyes than paper books with their generally too small and/or faded fonts. Possibly it's something to do with the way you read and it may be that eink doesn't suit you personally. But it's probably too early to tell yet. Do try some more fonts besides the default ones. Personally I don't like any of the Kobo default fonts, not even Georgia.
