According to world health organization who love eye association released, 2006 years to 2008 years as a blue radiation, every year, resulting in more than 30000 global blindness.
Virtual reality VR is the use of computer technology to simulate a stereo, high intention really 3 D space, back through wearing style VR device, see footage of 360 degrees, meet the "inside" feelings.
This stage head-mounted vr devices connected to the main platform is divided into 3 Major Categories: through high level computer operation; link home video game console or mobile as the platform. The former two devices to higher prices, plus it takes a small sum cheap cost escalation computer to achieve results as scheduled. The third category of mobile platforms, to start with a low threshold, simply will use home phone, direct installation can experience.
According to world health organization who love eye association released, 2006 years to 2008 years as a blue radiation, every year, resulting in more than 30000 global blindness.
All LED / LCD Light Equipment, including Television, computer, mobile phone, tablet, VR have blue light, blue light has a very high energy, able to pe*****te jīng zhuàng tǐ direct access to the retina, the blue light rays of the retina will produce free radicals, free radicals Would lead to a retinal pigment epithelium cells decline, which led to the light sensitive cells lack of nutrients and thereby causing eyesight irreversible damage.
VR Head-mounted device close images will be projected onto the retina, and vr helmet closed design will not be able to let users rely on outside lights adjusted, thus further increasing the damage users of his eyesight.
The University of California, Berkeley school of optometry, psychology and Neuroscience Professor Martin • Ebanks to the reporter explained :" although there is no conclusive evidence of VR equipment for specific age will cause harm to the child, but I think This is because children are in the distinction between reality and virtual critical period, to protect the children in the development of young people in the process of growth from all possible harm."
Martin Banks is also referred to the children :" watch very close. Close your eyes, such as the use of reading, look at your phone, etc, easily cause eye myopia. An American study has found that a 1971-1972-year period of 12-25-Year-old nearsighted. Than for 25 %, 1999-2004 to 41.6 %, and a lot of evidence to show this and read books or watch Computer, etc. Need to close with an eye closely related to the work. This is not difficult to learn that vr equipment may cause short-sighted, because of its distance glasses screen eyes only about 2 Inches (5 CM)."
A number of international big factories are concerned about the issues, such as: Samsung, Google, Oculus in use on the statement clearly in 13 not suitable for children under the age or use. Sony - play station, also in March this year software update also proposed based on health and safety, VR Head-Mounted Display is not suitable for age 12 or under children use. HTC Vive or even harsh, think children the prohibition of the use of such equipment. In the end, the education network coverage ophthalmic specialist tan de woo doctors should, in addition to causing vr glasses eyes dry and muscle fatigue, children are more likely to affect the development of the eyes. Tan de woo doctors noted that the study indicated that no vr glasses of long-term effects, but am sure there are three main areas: near shortcomings, light, fake." the first question is " almost " Ideal, depending on the distance of some items with one arm The Length of the VR glasses, but your phone is put at a distance of about 6 cm eye position, with the old flower lens to zoom in on the screen; children's long-term close watch a movie or hit maker, premature forming deep myopia, more than the people of the same age Come on the emergence of retinal detachment, Tsing Beam Splitter, cataracts and macular little lesions, etc."the second is the" Light, VR glasses cut off from the outside world, so that the film light Rays Intensifying, tan de bless the doctor said the long-term let eyes accept light stimulation, Can shape the macular little lesions, order morphing, vague or central appear blind spot." the third is " fake ", we see from far to near stuff and have a sense of distance, all due to the eye of the ciliary muscle contraction, thus turning the chip Thick, focus in close sight; but vr glasses distance effect is deceiving eyes and create out of glasses, except under the eyes after failing to adapt to the real world, may lead to vomiting, dizziness, and unable to focus, etc." the issue of children On a more serious, their eyesight not stunting if completed, the regular use of VR glasses, it would be difficult to establish a sense of distance and the three-dimensional effects of daily life, while growing up, also can't be engaged in the work of the good eyesight if the pilot and the police, etc.
In addition to major international manufacturers launch vr head-Mounted Display, the people there are also many cheaper product choice, unfortunately quality uneven. According to save t times > reported domestic environmental and health concerns of vr manufacturers still scarce, most vr practitioners continue to ignore the potential pitfalls. Due to upgrade hardware design especially change display technology cycle longer, higher costs, in VR was not large-Scale, long time use circumstances, many manufacturers are not willing to time-consuming to solve the problem.
