Binocular Dysphoria
|
|
Binocular Dysphoria is a condition where the brain adapts to an alternate way of perceiving depth cues. There's no link to any medial journals or articles of any kind. The New England Journal of Medicine doesn't mention "Binocular Dysphoria", neither does the New York Times, or even the American Optometric Association! I got nothing but blog posts, and reposts of the same story; I don't think there's any credibility behind this. You are looking in the wrong places. Realize that binocular dysphoria only occurs when subjects are immersed in artificial 3d environments. Therefore pretty much the only place you are going to see this referenced is in research related to VR or simulators. See things like: - The frequency of occurrence and severity of side-effects of immersion virtual reality - Aviation, Space, and Environmental Medicine. Vol 65(6) - Some side-effects of immersion virtual reality - Army Personnel Research Establishment - Effects of participating in virtual environmentsa review of current knowledge - Safety Science Volume 23, Issue 1 - Some evidence of adaptation to immersion in virtual reality - Displays Volume 16, Issue 3 - Binocular vision in a virtual world: visual deficits following the wearing of a head-mounted display - Opthalmic and Physiological Optics - Side Effects and Aftereffects of Immersion in Virtual Environments - Human Factors and Ergonomics Society Annual Meeting Proceedings A problem you are going to run into: research here is so sparse that researchers haven't even developed a common language. A researcher can describe the phenomenon of binocular dysphoria without ever calling it that - see dissociation of accommodation and convergence ALSO: "Binocular vision in a virtual world: visual deficits following the wearing of a headmounted display" - Mon-Williams, Warn, Rushton: Subjects were examined before and after exposure to the HMD and there were clear signs of induced binocular stress for a number of the subjects. ALSO: Visual Discomfort in Stereoscopic Displays: A Review - some researchers advise against stereoscopic viewing for children, stating that even though little evidence exist that viewing stereoscopic content causes permanent damage to the vision system, there is also no evidence that contradicts this argument". For some research this is cause for careful study for their undeveloped visual system as longterm effects of viewing stereoscopic content are yet unknown.
