I want to buy myself a Quest 3, but my parents keep saying that VR is going to destroy my vision and that I will have to wear even bigger glasses. I checked the internet for information, but I keep seeing mixed statements. Some pages say that VR is bad for my eyes, while others claim it won’t do anything. I even asked chat GPT, and it mentioned that if I take a one-minute break every 20 minutes, my vision should be fine. Still, I’m not 100% sure, so I want to hear some real advice and examples about whether VR is bad or not for your vision.
I understand your concern. I’ve heard similar things about VR and vision. Honestly, it really depends on how much you use it. Moderation is key.
I think the key is to listen to your body. If you start feeling uncomfortable or strained, it might be time to put the headset down.
I’ve also read that young eyes are more adaptable. So maybe if you are younger, your eyes can handle it better. But still, it’s always good to be cautious.
Does anyone know if there are specific guidelines for VR use? Like, how long should you really be playing before taking a break?
I guess the bottom line is to enjoy VR but be mindful of how it affects your eyes. It’s all about balance.
