Except the real world is experienced with more senses than the eyes. VR is currently still visual-only. In the real world, any visual defects are worked around by the brain using other sensory inputs. No such possibilities with visual-only VR.

Other sensory inputs such as hearing and touch which current headsets and controllers output using speakers and haptics.
