I don’t think VR headsets put the battery in front of your eyes, the weight would make them uncomfortable. They’re probably somewhere on the side of the device, or in Apple’s case, around your waist.
The Quest’s battery is in the front of the device, but behind layers of electronics, screen and lenses. It would have to do more than catch on fire to cause serious damage.
I have a similar worry with VR. Battery could explode and cause blindness 😬

Its as easy as looking up the teardowns or scans of the most popular VR headsets. They have their batteries in the front.
