Q:

___

___
version3.
"At night, when I use my phone in the dark, my eyes are blinded. I really need to set up the dark mode."
Do they all sound natural?
A:
How about this:
V1. “When I use my phone at night, it’s so bright that it hurts my eyes. I really need to set up dark mode.”
V2. “When I use my phone at night, it’s so bright that it blinds me. I should really set up dark mode.”
V3. “When I use my phone at night, my eyes get blinded. I really need to set up dark mode.”
The original sentences make sense, but I think you could word them better —
You can say “when I use my phone in the dark,” but it might sound redundant(like you’re repeating yourself). Because we already said we’re using the phone at night. But you definitely can say it.
“The dark mode” would just be “dark mode”
And “set up” could be changed to “enable”
So here’s a small example of how I would say what you’re trying to say:
“When I use my phone at night, the brightness literally blinds me. Maybe I should enable dark mode.”
Sorry if this is confusing and so long wtf. I hope this helped a little bit at least
