Maybe I was lucky, but the public library where I live mostly has more recent books, which are more white/black then yellow (acid) / black. But that's also a problem because I like old books so much and it's more difficult to get them.

In your last comment you said there should be no problem lasting for a couple of years even if reading 10 hours a day. That's great news then!

I'd like to thank everyone who helped me in this thread. So far, it's not perfect, but I read in the day with light at about 60-65% and in the evening maybe at 35-40% and it's much better for my eyes. It think I really have a problem with the background which is too dark for me but with font about size 12 in word it seems to do the trick. Thanks!
