Same i was reading a lot as a kid and have been on screens a lot since but my vision isn't horrible. Left eye is definitely near sighted. But overall it's ok. I definitely try to spend less time on my phone wich seems to be the worst for me.
Also grew up spending a lot of time in front of screens, vision is 20/15
