Just played my first VR shooter game. Holy shit!

Mind you I've never been a gamer but my son bought an Oculus Virtual Reality system and he wanted me to try it. I had no idea what I was in for! You really feel like you are in the scene with robots flying at you and shooting at you. Wow that was intense. I need a drink.

How much does it mess up your eyes?

I hope it wouldn't. You just put on those big visors and you have a 360 degree view of the scene you are in.

Any associated dizziness or nausea? I've heard that it can be disorienting if you play for any significant amount of time.

I tried an Occulus at the Syracuse Mall (Destiny USA) and found it to be really cool.

No but I played a relatively slow moving game where you are walking through streets and around corners with robots coming at you. I could imagine a simulation of driving a car, or flying could be quite disorienting.
