Nose Gap

Am I the only one disturbed by the nose gap on the Oculus Go? I am using the glasses spacer but even without my glasses, I still have this gap.
Any tips on how to fix this?

Lots of people like this accidental feature. It allows you to see your keyboard or other objects without taking the HMD off.
Some say it helps airflow.
For me, the gap disappears when I'm concentrating on the VR content.

Nose enlargement surgery is not cheap either.

Dear Oculus, If it ain't broke, don't fix it, please.

I recently had an allergic reaction (apparently to rapeseed fields and the Sun) and my left eye area got swollen - nose gap completely disappeared!

Problem solved. 😄

Try the Fitted Interface. It has less of a gap.

It's a feature, not a bug. I can walk around without having to take the headset off, by just looking down through the nose gap.

For those who struggle with the very small nose gap, John Carmack has made available a design mod.
This allows for large noses or use of mouse and keyboard with the HMD on.

You need to provide your own cutters though.

I'm thinking of trying the fitted interface, partly for the smaller nose gap, but mainly because I find the lower pad puts a lot of pressure on my cheeks.
