In an implementation, one or more user interactions from a virtual reality (VR) device user for initiating a service in a VR scenario of a VR application are detected. One or more eye physiological characteristics of the VR device user are obtained for user identity authentication. The obtained one or more eye physiological characteristics are compared with one or more pre-stored eye physiological characteristics samples. The VR device user is authenticated if the one or more eye physiological characteristics match at least a portion of the one or more pre-stored eye physiological characteristics samples, and a server that provides and performs the service is communicated with.
