Zeiss prescription lenses for Apple Vision Pro can cost $300 per pair

The revolutionary AR/VR headset Apple Vision Pro has just been announced, and many questions remain unanswered. One of them — the price of prescription lenses.

Boomberg correspondent Mark Gurman suggests that a pair of Zeiss lenses for the Vision Pro could cost between $300 and $600. That’s a big number, but hardly surprising given that Apple sells Mac Pro legs for $299 and Mac Pro wheels for $699.

And it’s not like anyone would buy a $3,500 headset and then refuse to pay for the lenses needed to use it.

But then again, Zeiss already makes extra lenses for VR headsets, and they cost 70-100 euros, so some hope remains.
