I do this all the time (even at night without lights) with no problem at all. The key is to have properly set brightness/contrast on your monitor and gamma correction.
It can achieved by setting the brightness to a minimum (and use the contrast setting to go even lower, or even combine it with GPU settings in addition to monitor settings). It is also important to set a proper gamma correction so that darker/lighter levels don't have too big contrast.
The gamma correction needed can be measured by comparing the apparent thickness of antialiased text in black-on-white vs white-on-black color combinations that you toggle between. Once it is the same you get the right value. For example it's 1.3 on my LCD.
