Second bolded, I'm not sure what you mean. 

 

 

Yeah, I don't get this line either. I've seen some people claim that there are potential health issues related to VR, but they are largely unfouned speculation. Actually, there is a chance VR headsets could actually help your eyesight.

To be fair, the company selling that VR has a vested interest in calling VR good for your health, since they are selling it. There are no numbers, studies, or other scientists backing it up.

Keep in mind, Smoking companies alleged smoking was beneficial, then no harmful, before they had to put the warning label on.

ExxonMobil told people in some latin american countries they where drilling in that, rubbing crude oil on their skin was healthy so that they could get away with pollution. It's not its highly toxic.
