Thx
never seen someone go so in depth on it. AND this dude is an eye doctor. Epic
Thanks! This was a fun video to make. I like VR, and I like eyes, so it was a good fit. 🙂
I know
@@DrEyeGuy I'm 27yrs old, and I had a traumatic injury to my eye 6 years ago resulting in a traumatic hyphema and vitreous hemorrhage and needed cataract surgery after they drained it. I had the cataract lens put in almost 5 years ago now and it's been blurry/reflective since I got it. Would it be worth spending the Money on the quest 2 knowing I have this problem? Or should it be fine regardless of botched cataract lenses?
@@kflow1379 Wow, sorry to hear about that crazy eye history. Does wearing glasses help the vision in that eye? How blurry is it?
Facts
i was generally expecting him to be like "wipe the lens'" "make sure its the right IPD" like the basic info everyone knows lol
surprisingly i learnt something haha
Thanks, glad I could bring a little bit more to the table.
Hi
2:59 he did talk about ipd
Yeah, i never thought about the key hole analogy. Makes so much sense, I was using the spacer even though I'm not wearing glasses cause I thought it would make it better (since i thought my eyes can see more of the lense/screen if it is slightly further away,lol)
@@tcrsh8918 I think he’s talking abt most videos just covering ipd and wiping the lens. This video covers more than just that
Potential bonus Tip: improve your ambient lighting. The lights in my living room were dim but after changing the bulbs and getting bright LEDs it seemed to make a pretty good difference. Maybe a one off but worth a shot
Nice tip!
Oculus does require a lit room (i think to locate itself in space). I find in dim lighting I get more positional stuttering.
If you wanna play in a dark room without actually turning on bright lights, just get IR Illuminators. They're invisible to our eyes, but they do light up the room for the Quest to see just fine.
@@brandongonzales3785 did this even make sense
@@steelsilence19 yup, IR light (infrared) is as bright a light as any wavelength, but it's invisible to the human eye. However, the Quest 2 can still see it like any other bright light.
Reason 6: You're drunk or high. You might not think being buzzed is a big deal, but being up close like that only magnifies the effects of your chosen poison. I'm not a Dr. or an expert. I'm just speaking from experience.
Or drunk AND high 😁
There was a smelly smell in the air last time I played vr, I knocked over a full cup of water, headbutt my desk, and stumbled back over my own feet. Vr’ing sober saves lives. 🤦🏻♂️🤣
Deadass
What? That's playing on Hardcore
Wtf
Reason 7 : stop playing gorilla tag
Hell no, your on drugs
NEVER
Bet
Also a easy change is to switch to night mode. As long as the color of night mode doesn’t bother you this can help a lot. Bright white is one of the most blurry/blown out colors on the quest 2. Night mode makes the bright colors a bit more dim and takes away a lot of blur.
I can’t tell the difference between nightlight and normal until I turn it off after a while
Did you watch the video before commenting?😂 he said that in the end
@@Spongebobber463 wtf you are probably little colorblind the difference is huge
@@Endorzan no I get used to it after a few mins
@@jonathanbjrklund8851 He said Nightmode can help with God Rays, mike is saying it can help a lot with blur too
With regards to the issues raised by glasses, a number of third party retailers offer replacement lenses using your prescription. This is the perfect solution for me who really struggles with contacts.
The detail in this video is astounding, thanks for the quality content, I use glasses myself and didn't want to use those spacers, so I made custom ones.
Woah? That's awesome... do they work pretty well? Thanks for the comment.!
My Quest 2 used to feel super blurry but with time and adjusting the strap i dont have that blurriness effect anymore at all
Same with me, once I got my settings and position correct, it became much easier and clearer to see.
@@DrEyeGuy I find a combination of the elite trap and a more customs facial interface helps to automatically align my eyes in the right position, I seem to be able to tighten the strap and never need to fiddle with it now or I'm just better at putting it on after so much practice!
I found the really extra thick padding the Vr cover interface comes with is moves around to much, probably Ideal for people with glasses though.
After getting the new strap with the turn dial I can see the screen better
Yaaaay
I'm pretty sure I have defective lenses 😢
I love your enthusiasm for explaining these things, plus all the 'funny visuals' themselves that you add into your videos too. Thanks for making these! Really nice, down to earth, and enjoyable to watch. Cheers!
Wow, thanks for the awesome comment. You made my day, and I'm not just saying that. Thanks!
I spent a career in film so recognized the fresnel lenses immediately but wanted to thank you SO much for all this data on fitting the Oculus to your eyes, including spacer, head straps and the sweet spot!
For me the standard interface brackets are too thick and put the lenses too far away from my eyes. I got some thinner ones off Amazon and it is much improved and gives a better field of view as well. Using the top strap and positioning the side straps slightly lower also helps keep them in the right position vertically (both pitch and vertical position), at least for me
Good to hear that you figured it out.
What where the ones you bought called
This man has quality content and deserves so much more attention, Thank you for this video!
Thanks so much! I'm glad it's helping people out. Thanks for the awesome comment!
Hi
"Make sure that your eyelashes don't rub against the lenses"
Girls who use fake large eyelashes:👁👄👁💧
Haha!
@@DrEyeGuy What if I naturally have long eyelashes?
@@lancenewland9886 try and find that perfect distance back from the lenses so the eyelashes don't rub on the lenses.
@@lancenewland9886 eat them.
@@lancenewland9886 burn them
Something that helped me (which now makes a lot of sense knowing about that sweet spot) was trying to remember to only move my head and not move my eyes. Feels weird and a difficult habit to form but definitely makes a difference.
Thank you so much for this video. I'm day one on my quest 2 and I was noticing the blur, despite any adjustments to the strap I tried and assumed I was one of those unlucky people with a weird IPD that doesnt match the quest. After watching this, I still have many more things to try to see if I can make it better. My eyes need to still adjust, I'm a smoker (meaning my vision gets a little blurred anyway, so the VR is probably heightening the effects), and i don't have any accessories to give better comfort. It's still playable, but it looks like the kind of blur you get after swimming in a chlorine pool all day.
Despite this blurriness, I'm blown away by the quality of the Q2.
Hopefully some of the tips can help you out. It really is a blast in VR once you get into it.
Wow! That's a great amount of detail and help to know about your eyes. And in fact also about the quest 2! Thank you very much.
Once I find that sweet spot (mainly by finding the correct position of how the unit sits on my head) I relax my eyes and get used to moving my head instead of moving my eyes to look around. It's a new learning experience for sure.
I just got one yesterday. I find it pretty crazy how close they are to your eyes yet they can be blurry without wearing my eyeglasses. Another random aspect that blew my mind. It's as if things really are far away in the virtual world lol. Thank you for the video. Was wondering why it was kinda blurry at different angles. The "sweet spot" is 100% true.
Learned tons about my device I’m new to vr. Thanks so much I have been having probably all mentioned problems :).
oh wow!
Thank you so much for this video doc. I instantly subscribed!
As a medical provider that was personally looking into this VR stuff during my off time (just wanting to relax and unwind) I am honestly concerned about the long term risks associated with prolonged VR use. Strange thing to worry about but it's keeping me from pulling the trigger on getting one of these things.
So thank you for your time in explaining this ^_^
Thanks for the sub. I think a lot of people at least are wondering about this. I'm trying to gather all the info I can to help people with this topic.
No worse than regularly watching tv or being on your phone lol
For the 3rd one you can get a prescription lenses cover for the oculus quest which can eliminate the possibility of destroying your lenses if you scratch them with glasses also it can help protect them
Thanks, this was very helpful!
I’ve watched a few of your other videos as well. I’ve been having pretty bad eye straining and your other video helped with that and I think it solved the problem!
I have a valve index, but this all tracks. I didn't know why I kept seeing these weird rings and now I've been able to fix it. You're awesome dude thanks!
After watching several of your videos I've been able to get my eye strain down and enjoy my time in VR more. Thanks man, keep it up.
That's so awesome to hear! Comments like this keep me motivated to make more videos.
I love how you go into the science about it. Most informative video on these topics, so ty!
Thank you! That really does mean a lot to me.
Fantastic, Ty for the clear expectations.
Great job. I have an Oculus Quest 2 and an HTC Vive. I knew about the lenses and the IPD adjustments from the very beginning but not about that center sweet spot circle in the lense. That really makes it easy to understand why they always want you to use the IPD adjustment. Over time I just hoped mine stayed set. On the HTC Vive its easy to turn that knob on accident and I dont have the paper guide to know my measurement anymore.
This was SUPER helpful and let me feel more confident that there's nothing wrong with my device or my eyes, just part of the experience unfortunately. I normally wear readers only when at my computer. I've tried Oculus with and without my readers, and I think I prefer it without. More comfortable for sure and the difference with my readers on was subtle enough that I wasn't even sure if it was better or not, and it seemed to really make edge distortion much more noticeable. Would you think readers-wearing users would be better off with or without their readers?
Thank you! Yes, in fact, the focal point for VR is set more in the distance, so people that just wear reading glasses should do fine without their reading glasses.
Incredibly in-depth video covering tons of nuances🤩 That's the case in point of how professional reviews should be💪😎 Looks like it's something obvious, but it's not👍
Thank you for this comment, it means a lot to me.
Thank you! Just now knowing that it's a fresnel lens has answered my question about the "sweet spot" I was missing.
This Video definitely clarified quite a lot
Thanks for making it!
Thanks for this excellent video. I’ve just ordered a Quest 2 and am coming from PSVR. I found some of these issues and fixes from my time with PSVR through trial and error, but your video logically explained what I found and also mentioned a couple of new points I will definitely take into account when my Quest 2 arrives.
Thank you for the awesome comment. I'm super glad this video ended up being worth while.
I don’t have the headset blurry, but I still watch this video
In fact I don’t even have a headset 😂
Thanks for watching anyway!
I hope you can get one someday or perhaps wait for the updated version they are working on
I just got it and its amazing
My 2nd attempt to find help. And dude you did the job. I’m ready to change the lens itself. Thankz
Great video - was always hesitant with VR cause of my eyes but I feel a lot more comfortable after hearing you go over things - TYVM !!
Awesome! Glad I could help.
You had me at... "Let's focus in"... I just subscribed.
Haha! Awesome! Thanks!
Haha same
@@Spicyfries_1 I'm a sucker for clever Dad puns...
Must be the dad part of me. 🙄
@@mvuto137 relatable 😂😂😂
Thanks Doc! It’s been my main problem since I got my device two weeks ago.
I wear progressive lenses and obviously it’s not ideal for the Quest 2 as I am constrained to the middle/top part of the lenses.
I’ve ordered some glasses with only the top part so hopefully it’ll help.
Also I’m now using an elite strap and it’s much easier to fine tune the correct position although it’s a little tricky to fit the glasses.
Thanks for commenting! I bet the glasses will help. My next video is a review of the some of the VR prescription lens inserts, and that might be an option for you as well.
@@DrEyeGuy Great! I'm looking forward to the next video. I've considered VR prescription lenses as well but they don't do them here in Australia and I need to order them from the US. So they're quite expensive.
Thanks! Super helpful!
There is also that the quest 2 (and all current VR headsets) are fixed focal distance. 1.5m in the case of the quest. Your eyes are used to focusing on things based on depth cues like the convergence distance of your eyes, so your eyes will actually miss focus for the virtual content when trying to look at something up close especially. Vari-focal headsets like the half-dome 3 prototype from Facebook reality labs use some very complicated technology to track your eyes and refocus the lenses to the correct distance for what you are looking at (and apply a depth of field effect mimicking how light normally falls on your retinas). With headsets like that eye strain should be substantially reduced as there isn't a mismatch between the focal distance and other depth cues.
I'm excited to test out varifocal lenses!
This is probably one of the most informative videos I’ve ever seen about anything on CZcams. Thank you very much I subscribed!
Many thanks. That's a high compliment right there!
and he's handsome AND funny. Triple threat? He had me at @3:00 like,.. visual refractive AMSR! LOL
Excellent video, thank you so much for clearly breaking down the details.
You're welcome! And thanks for the comment.
I ordered the lens inserts. Can't wait to get them. Not only with the bluelight and glare filters, and the minor awkwardness of putting the headset on over my glasses, plus I won't have to worry about scratching the lenses as much... Now from this video I'm learning that taking out the glasses spacer might help me see better, which hopefully I'll be able to do.
I think you are going to end up loving the lens inserts.
Just went to the eye doctor yesterday. I actually asked about VR and PD (IPD).
Thank you! I always hated the blueness and not being able to see text on the edges.
You're Welcome! Let me know if the tips help!
I've had my Oculus Quest 2 for a couple of months, and I have figured some of this out with trial and error, but I wish I had seen this earlier to save myself a lot of aggravation. Well done!
Thanks! How are you like it so far?
Hi!! I got my Quest 2 a couple weeks ago and your video helped me understand that blurry issue I’ve been trying to adjust! It’s so annoying. Thank you so much for this helpful video 🎉
Awesome! Glad it could help!
Once again another banger
this video was unexpectedly interesting and useful - thanks!
Thanks!
Great info, thank you so much! 👍🏻🙂
Thanks Doc. I just learned more from your few minute video than I have after spending literally hours of searching the internet about how to improve my experience with Oculus 2. I’ve been hooked on video games since Motorola put out Pong. I have Myst loaded on everything I own that will play a game. I’m 70 years old, wear glasses and spend as much time gaming as home chores and my wife let me get away with. I’m going to make sure all my buds know about your informative videos. Thanks again Doc.
Wow! Thank you! I'll try not to let you down with my future videos. It's been fun to help people out.
I don't get motion sickness, but I get bad headaches if I don't configure the headset for good comfort and optics. Luckily, the home environments are quite good for testing before you jump into a game.
It was my glasses and the included spacer. Thank yoU!!!
Great video! Good information... Somethings I had no clue what was wrong now I do. Thanks for shedding light on this... Thanks😉💯👍
Glad I could help! Glad to see this video is still helping people out.
Just getting into VR and smashing headlong into these problems. Thanks doc, you helped a bunch!
Glad I could help! Thanks for the comment!
As one owning the Quest2 and multifocal eye glasses and trying different things to impruve the view and use comfort I can say in 100% that the best solution is to order glasses that fit on the quest lenses and not using real glasses.
This made it much more enjoyable and more easy to put and remove the device.
This is the most impotent note for eye glasses users
I agree. Thanks for the comment.
Ezra, what kind of glasses/brand are you using? I’m still suffering with this issue
I just use contacts
Post a link my dude.
@@CptCadoodles CZcams eats links, google it instead dude
I don't have a quest right now but I'm VERY exited for it, probably because of the caffeine.
Was googling info on why vids are blurry on my Quest 2, & info about needing Readers vs using an oculus, your vids popped up & i loved them, so informative, thank u very much for this information!
That's amazing to hear my videos are out there helping people. Glad I could help.
Since I take my glasses off to read, despite them being bifocals, I thought it would be best to leave my glasses off in the Oculus. Well, I went ahead and installed the extension piece and tried it with my glasses on. HUUUUUGE improvement!
I am just getting my Oculus Quest 2, so while searching vids I found this and now I feel like I've been really careless so far with my eyes (not even receiving my headset yet, I mean while doing anything in general).
Thanks for the tips and info, doc!
No problem! Thanks for watching. I plan on doing more videos like this too.
You are very correct about the reasons, no bs like some other specify. Natural eyesight of a user should be normal or properly corrected with eyeglasses/contact lenses or lens inserts (IMO, the latest variant is the best, as it's the most convenient one and by far) FOR THE RIGHT DISTANCE, which is the distance from the eyes to the virtual surface where image is displayed. I read that for Oculus Go and OQ1 it's either 1.3 or 2 meters, OQ2 should be something about that too or somewhat closer as I noticed coz I do need glasses for it unlike Go (I use +1.5 glasses for middle distance in RL, I almost don't need them for Go), but Rift S f.e. has its virual screen basically at infinite distance AFAIK. So prescription glasses or lens inserts should allow to see clearly at that distance which is different for different headsets. It's strange that makers don't oficially publish the info about effective focal distance as it's critically important for older people who use several glasses for different distances (reading, TV, walking/driving).
100% Agree!
Seriously this video answered so many of my questions that I didn't even know I had. Great video and resource for anyone with the quest 2
Thank you for kind words! Super happy it could help.
Just a brilliant presentation! Thank you for providing such excellent content!
Something really important about glasses and the quest, just a scratch on the lenses of the quest can make it completely unusable, so I’d say the glasses spacers are worth it
Yes! Thank you for this comment.
if you scratch them you can use polywatch liquid to fix the scratch, look it up
@@elchamo14 yeah but it’s still better to just not scratch the lenses in the first place
@@EgansChannel obviously
You can get lens protectors, and prescription lens inserts that mean you can use the headset without glasses are a thing. However, I manage with glasses and the standard spacer.
As long as I wear it in the right position it's surprisingly clear. My left eye does go blurry sometimes.
I like to close my right eye, make sure it's clear for my left eye, then open my right eye for finding the horizontal and vertical sweet spots.
This video was very helpful! Thank you very much!
Thanks for the info.👍👍👍
Thank you VERY much for this excellent informative video. Its nice to see that more and more people are getting into VR; especially highly skilled doctors like Dr. Eyeguy (I realize that's not your real name).
Anyway, being an avid PC gamer since I sat down at my first DOS - C:/ Prompt in 1988 I have been into VR since the original HTC Vive became available in early 2016 and I ONLY play VR games since then. Being mostly retired now I spend about three to four hours a day in VR so this information helps.
Thanks for the awesome comment! I was obviously drawn to VR, and the optics and vision of it all intrigues me. I actually remember the DOS prompt days. 😀
Oh and since they added brightness controls reducing brightness reduces his rays a lot for some games.
This is really helpful. Thank you
Extremely helpful. Thank you
You're welcome!
I have been having problems with my oc2 being blurry. You reminded me that I put in the glasses spacer for a friend to play and forgot to remove the spacer. Many thanks doc,
Really nice video. I like the popping contrast and natural colors.
Thanks! So did that fix the issue? Just taking out the spacer?
Weird. The glasses spacer makes it better for me, but I dont use it often since it lowers FOV
@@MrMetropolis FOV?
@@dekunohero9822 Field of view. The further the headset is from your eyes, naturally the less space the lenses cover around your eyes. The higher the FOV, the more you can look around without it being pitch black in the edges.
Haven’t gotten them yet, but there is a company that is partnered with Oculus that makes prescription lens attachments so you don’t have to wear glasses while playing.
I got these because the quest scratched my glasses badly
Link pleasexx
The down side is i would jave to get then done every time i get a new prescription. I have to get glasses every year. It's already $400 aud for new glasses. Sucks
@@minaryeon9259 it's only like $60 for the lenses, so I don't think that's too bad.
Thank you for the info! Great video!!
And thank you for watching
Thank you for explaining.👍👍👍
interesting, i'm thinking about buying one of these, so Thanks for the Info.
Hope you like it. It's a blast for me.
So pleased I ran across your channel. I've long wanted to ask an optometrist, is there a mild prescription a normally sighted person could use (via lens inserts) to slightly magnify the picture? You may be aware that with the Quest 2's highest IPD setting you can see the left and right edges of the display panel as very harsh, straight, vertical borders. I find this very distracting and would much prefer the whole image was magnified slightly to fill the circular limits of the lens. Thanks!
Now this is a good question. If you out a magnifying lens in there, it is going to change the focal point of the quest, and potential make it blurry, which would defeat the whole purpose. Right now I can't think of a way optically to get rid the display edge... ill look into further.
@@DrEyeGuy Thank you, there may not be a solution, at least not one that can be readily ordered 'off-the-shelf', but it'd be a great discovery if it turned out there was.
Thanks Dr, you've been really helpful.
You're welcome! Thanks for watching.
Thank you. I was able to get a clear picture after following your advice about eye position and distance. 😊
Awesome! Glad to hear it worked out for you.
- Proceeds to wipe lens
Me: " Ah that's better 🤣"
Do you think farsightedness can also be a factor when it comes to blurry vision in VR? I'm farsighted and sometimes if I pull the headset a bit off my face, I can see the image more clearly because it's slightly further away. I haven't seen that much online about farsightedness and VR, so I'd be interested to hear your take on it.
It absolutely can affect VR. Do you wear glasses when playing the VR? People that are farsighted can usually do ok with distance vision without glasses. But without glasses you will have to use your focus muscles than other people would have to. This can for sure mess with the clarity.
@@DrEyeGuy I do wear my glasses when I play VR. I saw online that sometimes farsighted people do okay without their glasses in VR, but I have pretty severe astigmatism so it was all just very very blurry when I tried without my glasses. I did get an extra large glasses spacer to make the distance between my eyes and the screen a bit bigger, and I think it's helped!
@@rox9570 my glasses don’t fit even with the glasses spacer I’m not sure on what to do, I hate having to squint especially because i play Rec room (edit) - they fit, I have huge glasses frames and just had to take my time putting them in my glasses spacer correctly
@@laurelave118 Do you have big glasses too ?
@@laurelave118 Yeah my last pair of glasses fit perfectly into the quest, but my new pair is way too wide to fit unfortunately. So I'm just going to use my old pair for VR until I can afford to get some prescription lenses for the quest
Wow. thank you very much for this info.
thank you.
You're welcome!
Useful. Thanks
I could watch @3:00 for ... a long time... *_I want to see!_* i love Holodecks, I mean VR. *_"The Stars like Dust encircle me, in living mists of light, and all of space I see to see in one vast burst of sight!"_*
You can go in between settings too with ipd, always carry a microfiber cloth, never use your shirt to clean lenses. Or yes prescription glasses. And if your fogging up it’s probably bc the temperature isn’t the same in the headset then outside, or your nose is inside and breathing in the headset so I recommend a fan if the room is too hot. Just some tips :)
Nice! Thank you. I'm thinking about making a part 2 video, and I'll have to add these to the list.
@@DrEyeGuy that’s nice to hear! Thanks for the deed back
the info about the rings and the center was exactly what i needed.
I think this is why I'm waiting for the quest 3, different lenses like in the Pico 4, these are the y way forward, better clarity and thinner on the face
Best tip I can give for IPD and height adjustment, especially since getting the right IPD with the quest 2 is a guessing game (why oh why is it stepped?) - When it launches, use the color bleed around the dots as it's loading as an indicator of how to adjust it. If both eyes see color bleed to the same side, move the headset left/right. If each eye sees the bleed in it's own direction, then either loosen/tighten IPD, and if the bleed is up/down then obv adjust up/down. ideally try to look straight ahead while you do the adjustments, not at the place where the screen is. I usually have it adjusted before i'm in, it's a fast process, and it helps a lot.When you're in the sweet spot, the center of your vision will have almost no color bleed and if there is any it should be balanced on all sides
Thanks for that idea i did see it bleeds a little bit for me one way
see i have the opposite situation in that VR headsets just tend to work on me regardless of shape or inconvenient IPD adjustment, but i gotta get creative for my family members sometimes.
IPD on the quest 2 should not be a guessing game, each number is related to a specific IPD, this video even shows that 1 = 58 mm, and 2 = 63 mm
@@Edgard422 Absolutely! But some people might be in the middle - and this trick also works for up-down and left-right alignment. It's just a quick thing I check when I put it on to make sure things are lined up
@@varnull6120 Yes I know it is not fully configurable. Quick trick, you can leave the numbers in the middle and it will stay there, giving you 5 possible IPDs to work on.
I recommend playing with the strap, adjust it till it really wraps your head fully but comfortably, and then play with the lenses. It has 3 options and I notice for me is 2. Yeah at first it feels good and sometimes bad blurry, but I also think is because your eyes need to adjust a little. It takes about a few days for eyes to adjust and feel comfortable
Good comment! Thanks.
Thank you. very informative
Thank you!
Thank you mate, great video!
Another underrated virtual reality channel on CZcams, you'll be famous mate!
I don't know about famous. Just trying to help out! Thanks!
@@DrEyeGuy Remember me 😉
@@notmr47 Haha! Ok, will do.
Thanks for the info. Works perfect now.
I found my headset very blurry at first. The best way to fix it is to make sure u got the right IPD setting on, and it is fit right on your face. I thought I would have to use the IPD setting 1, because my ipd is around 59mm, but that was more blurry for me than the default 2nd setting. So I use the 2nd setting. Guess my IPD measurement app was wrong lol
Glad to hear you got it figured out! 👍
Thank you for this! Very informative and well explained
Thank you! And thanks for commenting.
excellent vid, thanks! Really interesting detail on the Oculus lens!
Thanks!
Hey Dr. EyeGuy - I have a 73mm IPD, and use both a Quest 1 and Quest 2 for work (at Meta Reality Labs). I can "squeeze" into a Quest 1 and comfortably accommodate to it's widest IPD setting of 70mm, but it's a bit more strain adjusting to the 68mm max of the Quest 2. I've been exploring using Prism inserts to try and push the Quest 2's IPD wider, to a range I can accommodate to. Can you share your thoughts on using a Prism insert to modify the 68mm max IPD?
Love how the eye doc ‘loved your comment’ but never actually answered your question 😂 guess that means he’s just loving the comments without actually reading
@@kevinconway2965 its a difficult question, he probably had nothing to say without having to do a lot of research himself
Great content. Let's be honest though, the optics on this device have always been a huge compromise due to the desire to reduce the cost of the device as much as possible. i just hope they splash out a little bit more when the Pro version comes along.
Totally agree!
@@DrEyeGuy having said that perhaps you could explain this for me. I need glasses for reading and although my long distance is perfect I really struggle to read an iPad or a book at normal reading distance without them. However the strange thing is I do not need to wear glasses in the Quest 2 and apart from the sweet spot issue the focus and sharpness is good. I can’t understand why I do need to wear glasses in the Quest 2!!
This is where the optics of VR is awesome. The lenses in the VR device focus the image close to distance...so if you have good distance vision, then it works out great in VR. It's the people that have really bad distance vision that are needing glasses in VR.
@@DrEyeGuy ah ok I didn’t know that. Thanks for explaining.
@@Yewbzee No problem
Thanks. I've seen this video, but didn't think there was anything to learn, but I've apparently been using the wrong ipd settings for the last year or 2.
