    Cool tech, but $850. Makes me wonder though how long before vr tech makes it to prescription glasses. A pair of glasses that can eye track where you’re looking, determine the distance of your focus and adjust the prescription to be able to see clearly at all times would be awesome.

      It takes a few hours to get used to vari-focal glasses with no expensive AI required.

        I’m relatively new to glasses. I tried a pair from Zenni (maybe that was my problem) but I couldn’t use them. Had to tilt my head down to look out the top of the lens to see distance. Now I just have distance glasses and have to take them off if reading, phone etc.
