Dear friend i am a researcher and posted the answer after considering a lot of science facts. Please do not mislead people by just refering to some website. I suggest you better ask a scientist who deals with the study of photoreception. I am sorry if i was harsh.
I'm told it is bad for your eyes. i think it is to do with the contrast from dark to light that it makes your eyes do and i think that it mught put strain on the eyes as it is costantly re focussing. this might not be right
There are two kinds of cells involved in photorception. The rod cells that helps you see in the dark and the cone cells helps you see in bright light.
Now When you look at your computer in a dark room for a long time the cone cells are activated since your monitor is bright and when u turn around your rod cells get activated because your room is dark., however the rod cells get bleached by the excess of bright light from the computer when you turn back to the computer. This pattern is acceptable at normal levels. However when it happens at regular levels i feel they affect your eyes.
This is what i feel could be one possible explaination. I may be wrong.
