      I’m not just talking about meta glasses. There are others more targeting vision impairment, but they have similar camera-in-glasses issues that attract the pervert label.

      The meta ones were recommended by the macular society, don’t ask me why.

        Meta glasses last all of twenty minutes while recording. They will never be to the quality that accessibility assistance devices will need to be.

        And for the record, we are not talking about large commercial products, more niche medical products that are much lower volume and much more expensive.
