Thank you for the explanation. I thought it’s the other way: the dark mode somehow provokes your eyesight to become worse. For me, I used white-on-black since the dawn of time (with CTR displays) and even then it was much easier on my eyes. Right now, I have an iPhone’s frontal sensors dirty (have a broken screen) and it manages auto-brightness wrongly to some degree. I have a dark theme all the time, and I tried to make it automatic (light during the daytime and dark during the nighttime, obviously). So so so horrible to me! Switched it back almost immediately.
