Methods and systems for identification of potential eye strain issues using virtual reality

A system for identifying potential eye strain issues through prolonged engagement, comprising:

• a high-resolution VR headset with eye-tracking sensors;
• one or more processors;
• and
• memory storing one or more programs configured to be executed by the one or more processors, the one or more programs including instructions for:
• generating a VR user interface corresponding to a three-dimensional virtual environment;
• rendering the VR user interface on the VR headset;
• presenting a series of progressively challenging visual tasks in the VR environment;
• continuously monitoring eye movements and behavior during the visual tasks;
• and
• evaluating the monitored data for indicators of eye strain.

A non-transitory computer-readable storage medium storing one or more programs configured to be executed by one or more processors of an electronic device including a high-resolution VR headset with eye-tracking sensors, the one or more programs including instructions for:

• generating a VR user interface corresponding to a three-dimensional virtual environment;
• rendering the VR user interface on the VR headset;
• presenting a series of progressively challenging visual tasks in the VR environment;
