Binocular fusion maintenance (BFM) was measured using a binocular open-view Shack–Hartmann wavefront aberrometer equipped with liquid crystal shutters. Twelve healthy subjects performed the BFM test and completed a questionnaire regarding subjective symptoms before and after performing a visual task that induces low visually induced motion sickness (VIMS). BFM (<i>p</i> = .87) and total subjective eye symptom scores (<i>p</i> = .38) were not significantly different between both groups, although these values were significantly lower after the visual task than before the task within both groups (<i>p</i> < .05). These findings suggest that visual fatigue after using a VR-HMD is not significantly different from that after using a 2D display in the presence of low-VIMS VR content.</p> <p><b>Practitioner summary</b><b>:</b> Objective and subjective evaluation of visual fatigue were not significantly different with the use of a head-mounted display for virtual reality (VR-HMD) and two-dimensional display. These results should be valuable not only to engineers developing VR content but also to researchers involved in the evaluation of visual fatigue using VR-HMD.</p> <p><b>Abbreviations:</b> VR: virtual reality; VR-HMD: head-mounted display for virtual reality; BFM: binocular fusion maintenance; BWFA: binocular open-view Shack–Hartmann wavefront aberrometer</p> Virtual Reality;binocular fusion;visual fatigue;eye movement 2019-05-28
