# Vision Mode

{% hint style="info" %}
**What is vision mode?**

Vision mode allows users to select and switch between **Virtual, Mixed, and Reality** modes. These modes provide different levels of vr experiences, **enabling users to interact with 3D objects and the real world in various ways**.
{% endhint %}



## How to find vision:

1. Click the **"Desk"** button from the main menu.
2. In the **Vision** tab, look for **Mode.**



## Virtual mode

Virtual mode displays virtual world **entirely composed of 3D objects**. Want to block out the real world and fully immerse yourself in the VR universe? This mode is ideal.
