Having astigmatism, I definitely feel like text in dark mode is harder to read than dark text on light background.
In regards to eye strain with light mode, what I found important is to match screen brightness to „environmental brightness“ (don’t know the proper term).
As a rule of thumb, when I put a white paper in front of a white screen, the screen shouldn’t illuminate the paper more than the other lights in the room.
