Abstract: A case for an electronic device such as a head-mounted device may have a main housing portion that separates an interior region from a surrounding exterior region. The main housing portion may have an opening through which the head-mounted device is received into the interior region. Flexible protruding portions of the main housing portion may form a flexible tab and a flexible flap. To make size adjustments to the interior region, the flexible tab may slide within an opening in a cover. The cover may be configured to move between an open position in which the opening is uncovered and a closed position in which the head-mounted device is enclosed within the interior region by the main housing portion and the cover. Deformable protrusions in the case may be used to seal openings in the head-mounted device when the device is in the interior region.

Abstract: A head-mounted device may have a housing containing displays that display images a user when the head-mounted device is worn by the user. The head-mounted device may include a light-shielding structure or light seal coupled to the housing and configured to rest on a nasal region of the user. The light-shielding structure may include flexible members and/or fabric members. For example, the flexible members may be elastomeric members having perforations that allow the light-shielding structure to conform to the facial features of the user around the nasal region, while maintaining rigidity. Additionally, the light-shielding structure may block environmental light from entering the eye boxes when the head-mounted device is worn by the user. Rigid or semi-rigid members may be added on or within the light-shielding structure to provide additional rigidity and support as the device is worn by the user.
