I have both Astigmatism (can't remember the level, diagnosticated long time ago) and Myopia, and from my personal experience, a not-completely-dark theme while coding in a well-lit room.

I tried using pitch-black/dark high constrast themes, but i find them harder on the eyes for some reason (felt eye strain in a few minutes). So i prefer the ones with mildly colorful tones and a translucent blue/dark background.

Last time i changed my glasses' lens, they offered some blue-light protection ones, and i think it also helped, though not so much.

I still need to try using light themes for real, but since i mostly code in a very dark environment, i don't think it would be worth it...
