Brief summary
This is a prospective, randomized, controlled, contralateral eye, clinical study. The objective of the study is to determine the impact of Virtual Reality (VR) usage on choroidal thickness when viewed through a test display compared to a control (standard) VR display. The hypothesis is that there will be less choroidal thinning in the eye viewing the test VR screen compared to the eye viewing the control VR screen.
