Is reading online books and taking notes on an iPad or any other electronic device harmful to eyes? Should I read the original paper books instead of this kind of LCD display?

Reading or looking on electronic screen for a long time is harmful to the eyes. You have to reduce the time you spent on screens as much as possible. Paper books are preferred for long time reading.
