  +1 for Viture if you’re a little near-sighted, as they have individual knobs for each eye to dial in the crispness. Xreal required inserts to be modified by an optometrist (and still didn’t feel quite right in my case >.< )

    I have the original Viture pros and can confirm. I’m decently near sighted at like -3.25 and can reasonably use them without my contacts or personalized lenses.

      Do you think they would work for someone in the -8 range? It would be pretty amazing to me to me if I could use something like that without contacts

        Honestly I think it would be hard to use. Even with my relatively slight prescription I had to squint a little to actually see some of the text on the KDE desktop

  How are these different from pervert glasses?

    Those offerings are more like monitors strapped to your face - youtube.com/watch?v=ha_7cZxqhhE

    No cameras, these are basically just a monitor.

    As BigPotato mentioned, they’re basically two small 1080p120 monitors built into some bulky eye glass/sun glass frames.

    There’s no cameras onboard and you can’t actually see through them, though the pros I have let you dim the sun glass effect to see your desk/keyboard.

    I also like how they’ve built speakers into the arms of the frames, almost reminds me of the bone conducting headphones.
