I feel dizzy or sick in VR. What helps?

Stop and take the headset off. Then try these tips next time.

Right now: Stop, take the headset off and rest until you feel completely fine. If symptoms continue, consult a medical professional.

Next time:

  • Sit down while you watch.
  • Take breaks: Headset manufacturers typically recommend a 10 to 15 minute break after every 30 minutes of VR use.
  • Set your lens distance (IPD) correctly for sharp, comfortable vision.
  • Start short: Try Discover L1VE for a few minutes before a long event.
