Separate PC VR game
The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim VRIs it included with The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim?
Skyrim VR is a separate VR game. It is not included with Skyrim Special Edition or Anniversary Edition: it is its own Steam product (app 611670) and needs a VR headset that runs SteamVR.
What you buy
The core game plus the three official add-ons that Steam names: Dawnguard, Hearthfire and Dragonborn.
