• Dizziness;
• Disorientation;
• Impaired balance;
• Impaired hand-eye coordination;
• Excessive sweating;
• Increased salivation;
• Nausea;
• Lightheadedness;
• Discomfort or pain in the head or eyes;
• Drowsiness;
• Fatigue;
• Any symptoms similar to motion sickness.
• Just as with the symptoms people can experience
after they disembark a cruise ship, symptoms of
virtual reality exposure can persist and become
more apparent hours after use. These post-use
symptoms can include the symptoms above, as
well as excessive drowsiness and decreased ability
to multi-task. These symptoms may put you at an
increased risk of injury when engaging in normal
activities in the real world.
• Do not drive, operate machinery, or engage in
other visually or physically demanding activities
that have potentially serious consequences (i.e.,
activities in which experiencing any symptoms
could lead to death, personal injury, or damage
to property), or other activities that require
unimpaired balance and hand-eye coordination
(such as playing sports or riding a bicycle, etc.)
until you have fully recovered from any symptoms.
• Do not use the headset until all symptoms have
completely subsided for several hours.
• Be mindful of the type of content that you were
using prior to the onset of any symptoms because
you may be more prone to symptoms based upon
the content being used. Review the comfort rating
for the content you were using, and consider using
content with a less intense comfort rating.
