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 symptoms linked to an epileptic
condition should consult a physician before using the Gear VR for S6.
Children
The Gear VR for S6 should not be used by children under the age of 13.
Adults should monitor children (age 13 and older) who are using or have
used the Gear VR for S6 for any of the symptoms described below, and
should limit the time children spend using the Gear VR for S6 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 Gear VR
for S6 for any decrease in these abilities.
