My eye doctor claims any long-term staring at a fixed distance will cause eye strain.

As for my "instructions" for people? I'm sometimes shocked that this place is called MobileRead.
I don't understand why you are in denial that a backlit screen and age add substantially to eye strain. How does your eye doctor's accurate claim change that simple fact?

Your doctor seems to agree that web browsing and email are different from recreational reading. The lesser degree of intensity and the shorter focus times etc..

Like I said before.

The bottom line though is at this point in your life eye strain doesn't affect you so enjoy the fact that you have a choice in what you use and stop trivializing the affect it has on many others. As you get older the odds are that you will experience eye strain at one time or another.
