Le EDIT: was going to add "with 0 proof" but I hadn't read the article... The next line literally starts "Without going into details". That's some fine journalism, right there.

McCollough effect - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia As to whether this could be considered brain damage is debatable. Whether use of these types of devices would have a similar effect is also debatable. They have the potential to, but there is no evidence. This is just marketing hyperbole.
Garacesh Posted February 26, 2015 Posted February 26, 2015 [..]stereoscopic 3D technology which is the current mainstream method for inducing the 3D effect in movie theaters and current 3D devices To be fair, 3d films really hurt my eyes, and I haven't been the first to say so. Not saying that Google are right, it's anecdotal, but if that's the case with Hololens I wouldn't be able to use it for anything over 30 minutes.

Patrick Posted February 26, 2015 Posted February 26, 2015 Since when did Google have a neurology department...
Garacesh Posted February 26, 2015 Posted February 26, 2015 By now I just assume Google has everything.. It's just if they're willing to tell us about it or not..
