Are E-Readers better for my eyes than LCD screens? Verified

In contrast to the screens found on laptops, smartphones, and tablets, e-readers are more beneficial for our eyes. E-readers utilize e-ink, a paper-like display technology that replicates ink on a page. This results in significantly less eye strain compared to reading from LCD screens, as it doesn't decrease our blink rate. It's advisable to avoid using an e-reader too close to bedtime since these devices emit blue light, which can have adverse effects on your sleep.
