It's the backlighting which really uses battery power, I doubt turning on screen curtain would make a measurable difference in battery use.

It blanks the screen by turning on all picture elements, making it look black. This uses battery power. Too save battery, , say hey Siri, make screen darkest. If someone sighted offers to help you with the phone, say Hey Siri make Screen brightest. Or make the screen darker or brighter in 25% increments with hey Siri make Screen darker or brighter.
