How To Buy
You can order online and there’s a specialist service available via chat or phone. “When customers order Apple Vision Pro, they will use an iPhone or iPad with Face ID and the latest version of the Apple Store app to complete a face scan. This scan helps users find the optimal Light Seal and head band sizes to provide a precise fit. For users who require vision correction, Apple partnered with ZEISS to develop ZEISS Optical Inserts that magnetically attach to Vision Pro, allowing users to take full advantage of the display’s incredible sharpness and clarity,” Apple explained.
