Abstract

A virtual reality (VR) system can be implemented to evaluate vision during digital device use and identify blue light sensitivity. The system utilizes an electronic device with a high-resolution VR headset equipped with eye-tracking sensors. It generates a VR user interface that simulates typical digital device use scenarios and renders this interface on the VR headset. The system presents a series of digital tasks within the VR environment, including simulated exposure to blue light during these tasks. Throughout the session, the system continuously monitors the user's eye movements and behavior using the eye-tracking sensors. The collected data is then analyzed for indicators of blue light sensitivity, potentially providing insights into how prolonged exposure to digital screens and blue light may affect an individual's visual comfort and performance.
