Video display glasses create a disorienting visual experience because the image on the screen does not respond to head movements while the viewer's other eye sees the real world moving normally.
The tinted optical properties of video display glasses can significantly reduce visibility through them, making simultaneous monitoring of the live environment difficult.
Adjusting to viewing a small image held very close to one eye while trying to navigate or work with the other eye requires substantial adaptation.

All reports are anecdotal and from different time periods, making it unclear if more recent hardware has addressed these issues.
The specific model discussed (Myvu Solo) was not formally tested by the participants in this conversation.
One reference was to an experimental fiber-optic viewfinder system rather than consumer video glasses, which may not be directly comparable to modern devices.
