Following the release of the Vision Pro, Apple has released a series of supporting documents on how to properly use the device and what to do if motion sickness or discomfort occurs while wearing it. This high-profile headset provides users with an immersive experience while also paying attention to the visual and physical discomfort that users may experience.
For possible visual discomfort, such as blurring, ghosting, dry eyes, tearing, light allergy, and eye strain, Apple recommends that users stop using Vision Pro immediately and wait for the symptoms to subside. Ensuring a comfortable fit for the Vision Pro on the head is critical, as pressure is evenly distributed across the bridge of the nose and cheeks, and aligned to the right angle. For first use, it is recommended to use it in short sections and take appropriate breaks every 20 to 30 minutes.
Apple also reminds users to help reduce discomfort by keeping their head upright rather than tilting their head and sitting upright when 3D movies, immersive, or spatial. Although the Vision Pro has been designed to accommodate a wide range of IPD, Apple notes that users outside of this range may experience visual discomfort.
For users with specific health conditions, Apple recommends using Vision Pro with caution. The use environment should be an indoor or outdoor "controlled" area with no obvious obstacles to prevent tripping or collision. At the same time, it is warned that objects such as doorknobs and cabinets can snagged the power cord and cause disconnection.
In addition, Vision Pro is not suitable for use in extreme temperatures, rain and fog, or any humid environment, and damage caused by moisture is not covered by the warranty. For the best experience, it is recommended to use it in a well-lit environment, as low-light conditions can increase the risk of collisions.
In the event of symptoms of motion sickness, the user should stop using and refrain from using the Vision Pro during the flight. Gradual adaptation through short, low-immersion experiences can help alleviate these symptoms. Apple also recommends that users minimize head movements, reduce window size, reduce immersion levels, and turn on "Reduce Motion Effects" in the Accessibility Ribbon in settings to reduce discomfort caused by visual movements.
For users who are prone to motion sickness, avoid highly dynamic experiences, such as Apple Immersive Media content, and spaces with a lot of motion elements**.
