Aweeee,
i was looking forward to your experience of everything like immersive video and stuff. That’s okay. thank you for at least not being rude to “try it out” with the intention of returning it like I’ve seen some people say on Macrumors a few days ago lol.
I’ll probably buy one at some point, but I need to see how the app ecosystem looks, and maybe try one out at the Apple Store.Aweeee,
Thanks for posting this link. My prescription expired last month, so it wouldn't be accepted. Also, my vision is much better in one eye, even corrected, so I don't know if that means the AVP won't work. I can't imagine spending this much without being able to try the AVP, even if only with reader lenses. I hope there will be a way to do that.
For me it's an eyelid problem. I don't have drooping eyelids, but something referred to as triple eyelids. Essentially my upper eyelid has a fold due to aging and it hangs down. Never knew this was an issue until memojis came out, and my memoji eyes are always closed. I am guessing that the technology Vision Pro to track your eyes will be similar.Thanks for posting this link. My prescription expired last month, so it wouldn't be accepted.

If this turns out to be impossible for me, I guess I'll have to wait for a direct interface to my optical nerves or visual cortex.
Under some circumstances, surgical or other treatments for your condition may be covered by insurance. You also may want to check out an AVP at an Apple Store at some point to see if it won't work for you.
For what it’s worth, I just learned recently that John Gruber from Daring Fireball has a significant eye issue in one eye and he’s been pretty ecstatic about the product. Here‘s what he said. I hope it helps:Thanks for posting this link. My prescription expired last month, so it wouldn't be accepted.

i still have one in my cart. If i order now, it’s saying I’ll receive it right around my birthday in march.Apple Vision Pro Sold Out, At Least For Pre-Order
Trying to score a pre-order for a $3,500 face computer? Good luck: Apple appears to be out of stock of Apple Vision Pro headsets, at least for the moment.

YouTube refusing to have a Vision app when they have one on the Quest 2...
I wonder if they're going for the Windows Phone strategy they used back when that was a thing.YouTube refusing to have a Vision app when they have one on the Quest 2...
What strategy is that?
I think it was probably a mistake for Apple to allow developers of iPad apps to opt out of them running on Vision Pro, but I guess we’ll see.YouTube refusing to have a Vision app when they have one on the Quest 2...
Oh, I wasn't clear. I meant Google. They refused to build any apps for WP7, killed all 3rd party YT apps, and downgraded the web experience of all their properties even though IE could handle them. I'm wondering if this is the strategy they (and other companies highlighted) are taking.
I got as far as doing the assessment for fit testing in the Apple Store app just to see what it entailed. But I can't see myself putting down $4K or so without trying one at an Apple Store, even if it's only with reader lenses. I also want to see a few independent reviews, which should appear fairly soon. In the meantime, I'm going to update my eye prescription, just in case.i still have one in my cart.

I’m finally bringing my tesla in for service tomorrow (suspension warning light and drivetrain service light keep coming on - I’ve been delaying for a year because my last service experience was so bad), and if the repair for the drivetrain is not $7000 I will probably place an order for the AVP. That said, it’s perfectly possible the car repair will be $7000, so…
