Why does Quest 3 make me nauseous in passthrough within 15 minutes but Apple Vision Pro doesn't even after four or more hours in it? I think that is the bigger innovation. Vision Pro is the first headset I can hand my mom and not worry about it triggering vertigo.

I mentioned that I returned my Apple Vision Pro. I have had LASIK and am very sensitive in my eyes. I probably need another LASIK surgery or go onto glasses again. I did scan through almost every return post I could find on reddit to find similar issues.

The kicker? I didn't stumble upon any related to nausea. Having worked on Quest 2, this was a major concern at the time. I couldn't believe how few posts I saw[0].

I'm very happy to hear that your mom is using it! And without vertigo can be a very big step for these devices.

[0] - I'm sure there are posts. I just didn't see any when I was searching about how to return it.

Lasik again? Good luck man. You only get one set of eyeballs, be happy with where you are.

Yup. It may be totally anecdotal but from the last 3 people I know who did it, 1 is happy with the result, another is struggling with bad dry eyes, and another one have had his vision worsened on one eye without possible correction.

I know the operation is statistically safe but risks are pretty real.

Medical risks are always very real for anything.

To pile on the anecdotes, I corrected a -6.5 left eye and a -5.5 right eye with LASIK, had dry eyes the first year, and never had any issues afterward. Life changer.

Sure, and that'w why my doctor don't want to operate me on lasik because of amblyopia.

[epgui]

And that makes perfect sense!

I'm hoping to go full Homelander this time.

No more LASIK for me. That's why I returned the AVP. What I'm doing is fine now, but the AVP triggered something in my eyes that I don't want to address just yet.
