Apple’s revolutionary Vision Pro AR\/VR headset is still fresh, and there are many unanswered questions. One of them is the price of prescription lenses for people who need them to use the thing.<\/p>\n

Well, Bloomberg correspondent Mark Gurman speculates that a pair of Zeiss lenses for the Vision Pro could cost between $300 and $600. That’s a hefty amount but not surprising, considering Apple sells $299 Mac Pro feet and Mac wheels Pros at $699.<\/p>\n

And it’s not like someone would buy a $3,500 headset and then refuse to pay for the lenses needed to use it.<\/p>\n

I’d imagine the Zeiss prescription lenses for the Vision Pro will cost at least $300-600 a pair, unless Apple is eating up some of the cost given the already steep price tag of the headset itself.<\/p>\n

Plus, Zeiss already makes add-on lenses for VR headsets and they range from \u20ac70 to \u20ac100, so some hope remains.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
