I have the exact same issue too and wish I had a name for it. I had been assuming it was related to astigmatism since I also have issues with low-light environments especially with reflections (e.g. hate watching TV in a dark room, don't like driving at night especially in rain) but it seems like others who have this issue aren't mentioning it so now I'm doubting that.

A little bummed seeing how hostile most of the comments here are but I guess it's to be expected if most commenters are seeing very differently than how I and the author are.

I suffer from the same issue and I've always assumed it was astigmatism as well. There are different types of astigmatism so perhaps some types have this issue and some don't? I'm unsure, but I know that dark mode is legitimately hard for me to read.
