    WHAT IS DISCUSSED IN THIS VIDEO
    40% TO 70% have experienced symptoms of VR Sickness (Cybersickness). There are many theories to why we experience motion sickness, but most of them include a sensory conflict between our eyes and ears. VR, like the oculus quest 2, causing something called Vection (visual illusions of self motion), but our ears don't sense it, causing cybersickness. Here are 5 eye tips to help:
    -20/20/20 rules: take a break every 20 minutes
    -Have a correct IPD
    -Wear your visual correction
    -Wear contacts or VR prescription lenses if you can
    -Ocular-motor exercises (research is lacking with this one)

    *Pro Tip: take 1-2 ginger pills 20 mins before. NOT gingerale (which has zero real ginger). Get the stuff that is simply dried natural ginger. Works better than all these tips combined. FYI - I'm extremely sensitive to motion sickness .... yet completely free of VR nausea when doing this.

    Thanks for this! I’m a PT that has done a bit of vestibular rehab, and I’m also someone that has struggled with motion sickness my whole life. I was hesitant about getting into VR due to this, as well as my bad experiences on VR motion sim rides, trying out FPV drones with goggles, and using prior low tech VR (ie Google Cardboard). However, thus far I’ve done surprisingly well with my Quest 2 - I’ve really tried to avoid smooth movement /thumbstick controlled games and don’t try to push through any feelings of sickness. I’m hoping to push my VR legs a bit and see if there’s any real world motion sickness improvement. I will definitely continue to check out your channel!

Movement isn’t thumbstick controlled but rather “grabbing” and pulling yourself or the environment. A bit too fast and dynamic for me right now, but hopefully the vestibular system gets a little more acclimated!

    Turning on snap rotation helps a lot but I've also resorted to taking motion sickness/nausea meds 20 min before gameplay and afterwards which helps. I don't want my body to become reliant on it so I take short breaks after 20 minutes of gameplay like you suggested. Also, thanks for answering my question with the glasses. I'm near sighted (not completely bad) but wasn't sure if it was helping during VR. I'll try wearing it again to see if that helps.

  • @Ucceah
    @Ucceah Рік тому +7

    not eye-related, but one thing that helps many, is to have a fan gently blowing at you form the front.
    a lesser known trick for games with joystick controls is, to hold the right stick pushed foward when turning. this makes the turning much more controlled and less twitchy, which just feel better, even when you got strong VR legs.
    but most importantly: motion sickness isnt something to worry about, or that needs immediate fixing. IT'S NORMAL AT FIRST! ..and will drastically decrease over time.

      yes! I was shocked because the first time I played Alyx I said there is no way I can walk with joystick, I'm gonna have to teleport and I stopped playing after 20 minutes. Came back 2 days later and played Pavlov and Echo and had no problem! And to think I almost returned my Quest 2 because of that :D

  • @briancamcginn

    I just started using VR. I used the National Geographic game a few times. Movement in the game is one of two ways: instant teleportation or fluid movement (basically walking using the control stick). When I use instant teleportation I have no issues, I start using fluid movement I experience motion sickness and my balance is hard to maintain.
    It’s like a light switch for me: I turn it on, I feel sick and my balance is harder to maintain. Turn it off and sickness and balance issues go away.
    I definitely think it’s the visual cues not matching what your vestibular system is telling you.

    Thank you for another great video. I've gotten a bit whoosy/dizzy when my husband & I play Walkabout Mini Golf, especially when the course is set in high places. The space station course was the worst. He can do the flying motion in the game, where that gives me VR motion sickness. My husband shared an article with me about using chewing gum to counter cybersickness. I started chewing mint gum when we play and that seems to help me more than having candied ginger. I also got my Rx headset lenses from Reloptix, thanks to your video on Quest 2 Rx lenses, and am realizing that having the lenses apparently helped, too.

Also Beat Saber is insanely fun. Zero motion sickness because you don’t move, the cubes do. The Room is another cool puzzle solving game. I just tried Hubris a few weeks ago and after running, jumping, climbing and swimming in the game setup I got so sick I felt it for almost 2 weeks. 😭 I really wanted to play that game!

    Hi, from Bucharest, Romania ! I am 39 years old and suffer from motion sickness since childhood. Antiemetic drugs are of no use to me and journeys, including by train, are tormented for me. I feel strong fatigue and nausea during a travel by train. Unfortunately in car rides is the worst. Besides the classic motion sickness that you describe in this video, I think I have an increased sensitivity to vibrations and speed variations. I feel pressure and an unpleasant sensation when the car is turning, accelerating and decelerating. Then I start to feel nauseous, feeling which sometimes suddenly increases in intensity. I have had a few flights recently. I feel every movement of the airplane like a strong pressure in the chest, back or head. Ofcourse, I also, sometimes feel nauseous on the plane and flying is stressful for me. I would not resist traveling more than an hour by the airplane. I really don't know how to stop being sensitive to speed variations and vibrations.

    Dr. EyeGuy, I am scheduled to have DMEK and the installation of Vivety lenses this summer. I am a school teacher that uses VR everyday with my students. I am concerned that the Vivety will make it so that VR will no longer look right and thus jeopardize my ability to do my job. Your thoughts?

    • @DrEyeGuy
      @DrEyeGuy  2 роки тому

      Excellent question Todd! There are a lot of things to consider and think about for this one. Overall I think it's going to be a good thing and likely improve your vision and actually help with VR. With the vivity lens (I'm assuming you are a doing a multifocal lens), it should provide distance, intermediate, and near vision...as long as it's positioned correctly. VR usually sets their focal point a little bit further out in the distance (Oculus Quest 2 is 1.3meters out). That lens should do well that far out because it has a good depth of focus. There may be some limitations with glare or halos in VR... possibly... I'm not sure? But overall, I would think that it should help. If it doesn't, there's still a chance with correction, either glasses or VR lens inserts, that it could help. Tough to say because of so many factors. Are you having this surgery in both eyes, or just one eye?

    As someone whos been using the Quest 2 for at least 4+hrs every night, for the last 3 yrs.... i got motion sickness early on from sitting. As long as i stood up, i was fine. Even now, occasionally I'll feel it & stand up and it goes away. (I dont wear prescription glasses).
    My 27 yr old daughter also uses her Q2 alot, but has very bad eyesight..she tends to still get motiin sickness once in a while. Most times standing up helps.. other times she just needs a break.

    To give everyone here that when the Quest 2 is refered as the vomit machine, these users their IPD was not corresponding. Quest 2 has a fixed setting from 59/63/67, mine is 65, the quest 2 made me sick for two days, returned it thinking VR is nothing for me. Than I learned about this IPD, tried the Pico 4 (where you can set the IPD sharp by 0,5mm) and how boy I could play for an hour without any noticable signs of headache nearby. I talked to an optician about it and told me that using lenses in general with a difference of 2mm from your actual IPD was even dangerous to do, the doctor didn't understood that ''dangerous'' products like this were even sold without prescription. And I can tell you he's right as using the quest 2 for 30 minutes really gave me like migraine for two days. Can you guess what it would do when being stubborn and passing a whole day with the device thinking it's just a matter of getting used to the feeling.

  • @Scruit

    I wore my distance glasses with my Quest 2 and it actually made contact between the lens of the headset and the lens of my glasses. The glasses lens was scuffed and I have to see if my optometrist can fix that. My advice would be to definitely use the "glasses spacer" which goes between the headset and the face padding.
    I actually wound up ordering prescription lenses for the Quest 2 instead of risking another pair of glasses.

Until this year when the pollen hit and I haven’t been able to wear them since. They made my eyes so red they looked bloody and they felt like I had gravel in them now and then. (It’s not concretions) it looks like I have a permanent crescent shaped mark on each eye now from the contacts. The eye dr I’ve been going to just seems puzzled and gave me dailies to try because he can’t think of anything else. He says my eyes are suddenly dry. Any ideas on how to fix this? Am I doomed to glasses?
