If you've ever worn an Occulus you'll know that at the moment its resolution is too low to read small text, but that won't be long. You'll also know that the space around you is immensely larger than any set of monitors could offer you. Think how your development environment is now, two small full 1920x1200 24" monitors likely, sitting about a meter from you.
When the Occulus sports 2 QHD screens, you will have that same DPI, but for your entire field of vision. And because of the sensors you can move your head around, meaning there can be windows, data, tools, information everywhere around you, literally just a glance away.
And then the icing of the cake: The Occulus lets you relax your eyes! No more eyestrain, I am not 100% certain but this might allow you to someday look 8 hours at a screen, and feel like it's been a day in the park for your eyes.
