Changed Description:
When collecting a lot of experience-
say, from experience farms, Bottles o' Enchanting, or mods-the experience focuses around the player's viewpoint camera. This results in bright flashes of yellow and green and can cause epileptic seizures in those with epilepsy.Suggested fix: have the experience target a part of the player other than the eyes, such as the torso.

That isn't the point. Taken from my Minecraft Forums post,
Please read this. This is a very serious issue and people have had epileptic seizures while playing Minecraft.

This is one such example of a person having a seizure based on experience gathering. This is a serious issue to those with photosensitive epilepsy.
This is not the same issue as
MC-460. The experience orbs are eventually collected; they just take a while because of how many and the orbs seem to be absorbed one at a time. That issue addresses the "ghost orbs". This issue addresses where the orbs orbit and how they obstruct the player's vision, causing seizures in at least one known case (see above).I can see
MC-460being fixed with better interaction between the client and the server, but if the XP orbits the head after the fix, then this issue is still open. They are separate issues.I believe there is one easy fix, one more-difficult (but more visually pleasing) fix, and one easy patch (that would not be a fix).
