Just so you know "córnea" is "cornea". Both languages shamelessly steal the word, as well as many other medical terms, from latin.
For me, I know when reading on my N800, unless I look away a lot (like if I am reading while at work), I start having trouble focusing until I give my eyes a rest for a bit. I am under the understanding (based on my brother the med student), that this is due to the backlighting. Usually people don't stare at light sources.
