Does watch ipad iphone or another smartphone in very dark place bad for your eyes?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Not a problem: The intensity of light is not harmful from these devices and the focusing is easy with normal eyeglass correction if needed. Doing this in dark places may actually make it easier to view.
