General advice:

-Get a decent monitor (not necessary, but I prefer the wide curved ones like this[0]) and increase the font size. I never went back to my 12" laptop screen after I discovered larger monitors with big font.

Specific to day time use:

-Try and avoid glare. You can place your screen in front of a large source of light and turn up the screens brightness.

Specific to night time use:

-Use applications like Redshift or f.lux to reduce blue light as much as you can.

-Reduce the brightness of your screen.

-Try and get ambiant light, such as a difuse lamp or something, behind your screen to illuminate the area surrounding your work space.

These usually work for me. Best of luck!
