> The Vision Pro has another small problem for spectacles wearers. Contrary to some reports, Apple says that corrective lenses are available for most conditions, including astigmatism (which we weren’t sure about in part one), and they also offer bifocals, and progressives. But if you have a prism value included in your prescription, you’re out of luck. Prism correction is used to correct for diplopia, or double vision. The easiest way to see if your vision prescription is supported is to use ZEISS’s online tool.
As someone that has prism in their glasses, that sucks. I do have custom lenses with prism for my Quest 2. Not sure why apple can't offer it as well, especially if the lens comes from ZEISS.
- mac-mc 3y agoI think it's because of eye tracking issues. If you need a prism then you probably have other issues with how your eyes move around and they haven't developed for that yet. They are thinking about it although as shown with the accessibility options. I think they will figure it out eventually.
- LoganDark 3y agoI suspect I might need prism lenses, but there's already an eye tracking option that tells it to only use my left eye. Used that option during the in-store demo, and it worked pretty well. If the image in the right eye were adjusted to match my condition then that would've been even better, but my brain already mostly ignores the image from the right eye so it didn't matter that it wasn't.
