The Apple Vision Pro's use of Pulse Width Modulation to regulate brightness and color mix may pose health risks for some users, including motion sickness and potential issues related to constant flashing. Strobing lights can trigger flicker vertigo, photosensitive epilepsy, and aggravate other health conditions such as migraines and traumatic brain injuries.
