Non-3D Glasses? Screenless pc?

[CMetaphor]

Just curious if anyone has had some experience with NON-3D glasses. Long story short: my eyes don't focus at the same rate nor do they have the same prescription, so every time I've tried VR, it's make me extremely nauseated very quickly.

However, I am tickled by the idea if an SFF gaming PC beside the bed or couch whose only display is some glasses. So obviously, finding something that fits that part of the idea is essential.

So then HWC, have any of you tried some non-3D glasses that worked well? Ideally they'd be like mini OLED display(s), I'm assuming 1080p or higher? Would two mini displays even be needed for regular 2D usage?

Sorry as always for my weird-as-heck questions

I seen these one being "reviewed" online. One of the thing is that they offer prescription and custom face scan. Not sure if it's strictly 2D or not tho. Starting at $1.5K CAD is kind of steep.

Apple Vision Pro is pretty close to what you're asking for I think, a wearable computer effectively. Sounds like pre-orders sold out pretty quickly though and well it's a high cost of entry anyways...

Though it sounds like you just need to buy replacement lenses for whatever headset you have? Pretty sure there's opticians out there that cut lenses to match your prescription and fit the headset.

Apparently, the tech industry doesn't know what to call these. VR headset, VR goggles, display goggles, display glasses, AR glasses/goggles, etc etc.

So far, the "XReal Air 2 Pro" glasses seems to fit my (strange) needs, but it's also 600$ (Link). There's also the "Viture XR glasses" for $440 ($590 CAD) that seem to be the highest -rated and most-supported set out there (Link).

The latter seems to be the safer bet, with "diopter adjustments" and official support for Playstation and Xbox AR gaming platforms.

Regardless the price is a bit high for an impulse buy, so I'll set myself up.for lots of research before making any decisions.

Didn't our parents tell us not to sit so close to the screen?

VR makes me sick too. I think it's the refresh rate that gets me tho.

VR makes me super dizzy, I need glasses for reading/seeing anything real close.

Same here. I began to get motion sickness a few years ago.

Tried PS5 VR at a friend last year, could not do 1 minute, total disaster.

Started Doom Eternal recently, and I had to configure a lot of settings to to play it a little bit.

Good to know I'm not the only one.

IMO, VR setups should literally start with a mini eye exam. Turn off one eye, and get the display to its clearest and smoothest, then swap sides. It would probably help a few more people experience VR that don't have perfect vision.

I do know someone using some AR glasses in the fashion your talking about and he quite enjoys it. I don't recall exactly which ones he is using though
