Children
The HMD should not be used by children under the
age of 13, as young children are in a critical period
in visual development. Adults should monitor
children (age 13 and older) who are using or have
used the HMD for any of the symptoms described
below, and should limit the time children spend
using the HMD and ensure they take breaks during
use. Prolonged use should be avoided, as this could
negatively impact hand-eye coordination, balance,
and multi-tasking ability. Adults should monitor
children closely during and after use of the HMD for
any decrease in these abilities.
Seizures
Some people (about 1 in 4000) may have severe
dizziness, seizures, epileptic seizures or blackouts
triggered by light flashes or patterns, and this may
occur while they are watching TV, playing video
games or experiencing virtual reality, even if they
have never had a seizure or blackout before or have
no history of seizures or epilepsy. Such seizures are
more common in children and young people under
the age of 20. Anyone who has had a seizure, loss of
awareness, or other symptom linked to an epileptic
condition should see a doctor before using the HMD.
