Physically adjustable IPD (distance between eyes) and eye relief (distance from lens to eye) lets you optimize the field of view for your face. With these features, as well as the dual-element lens and canted optics, this headset provides 20° more FOV than the HTC Vive for typical users.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDual-element lens\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe custom lenses built into the Valve Index Headset maximize field of view without sacrificing edge-to-edge clarity.
