The user interaction with the real world
In gaming fields, virtual reality holds the best place for gamer experience. Gamers will spend hours or even days playing the virtual reality game because it gives the experience of adrenalin rush if they are playing a battlefield or horror game. As a result, they will have less interaction with the real world. It is because they are addicted to the game. In addition, according to some researches, some users feel that the ‘virtual’ reality is way better than the real one. Knowing the risk of addiction, the developer must find a way to prevent it.

The addiction to virtual reality also brings health risk to the user. Though virtual reality seems fun, the user’s eyes will get tired and dry if they spend hours playing the virtual reality. In addition, the users may feel difficult to adjust their eye when they are finished in using virtual reality. It is because the motion pictures in the virtual reality are faster than the real one. The users have to experience a sort of adjustment before getting used to it. Both the users and the developers have to consider the health issues for using virtual reality. When it is related to health, it is not a trivial thing.
Virtual reality is one of the technologies which human being has been waiting for. As we keep living, the development of such technology is also progressing.
