Programming in. VR helmet - convenient or stupid?

Question

Workplace

I spend 8+ hours a day at the computer, and for this I have equipped my workplace very comfortably:
1) A chair with a footrest and a keyboard with the ability to work reclining
2) A large 4k monitor
In general, nothing, I have been working like this for a couple of years, but it’s a little short of the ideal - despite the fact that I placed the monitor on a bracket with a gas lift and I can move it, lift it and tilt it very much, I still can’t place it so that I could lie down and not raise my head.
And I want to lie down and relax =).
So the idea in a VR helmet is eating me up, maybe someone has tried it, the pros, cons, how do the eyes feel, etc.?

Answer 1

Plant your eyes %-()

Answer 2

now the trend for workplaces is much more popular, when you can switch to standing mode in a minute . well, actually, most of the time it works like this
ps there are options even standing-sitting-lying .. but expensive)) and in any case, long-term VR is still more dangerous for vision, and even for life
, despite the fact that in the sample , the first is a critical article about standing work , it immediately confirms the harm of prolonged "sitting" (lying down will not be better). as well as, for the most part, the studies themselves are criticized

According to the authors of the comparative study, the quality of the evidence base was low, the studies were poorly designed and had a small number of participants.

Answer 3

I thought about reading books.
But really, it's inconvenient.
Even at home, configuring so that the eyes look the same every time is difficult - you won’t be able to move the pupils alone, and turn your head around - the helmet is heavy.
Any additional actions - sip tea, look out the window, and so on - are inconvenient.
If it were not a helmet, but augmented reality in light glasses no heavier than Google Glass, then maybe.
And so - well, maybe this will suit someone, but in mass use - obviously not yet.
