A typical Apple "Retina" display has 57 pixels/degree[0], held at ~10 inches. VR screens are roughly similar resolution but held far closer to the eye, so pixels/degree is proportionately less. All this mean that we'll need dramatic increases in display resolution before it's pleasant to read text in VR for long periods of time.
