Different types of lenses

Meta Quest 3: pancake lenses

Meta Quest 3: pancake lenses

The Meta Quest 3 has pancake lenses. These lenses are flatter and need a smaller distance to bring the image into focus. That way, the image has almost no distortion so you're less bothered by motion sickness and won't get nauseous as fast. The Quest 3 doesn't have fixed settings, but a range between 53 and 70mm.

Meta Quest 3S: Fresnel lenses

Meta Quest 3S: Fresnel lenses

The Meta Quest 3S has Fresnel lenses. These lenses provide a wider field-of-view but have rounder lenses. This creates more distortion in the image, so you're more likely to suffer from motion sickness. As a result, you get nauseous more quickly. The Meta Quest 3S lenses have 3 different IPD settings. The lenses are less adjustable than the Meta Quest 3.
