You'll need an appointment, a head scan, and prescription data to buy an Apple Vision Pro(www.techspot.com)

I guess it makes sense to need prescription data but its weird. Also if you get prescription version will anyone else be able to use it? Will there be swapable lenses for multiple users?

What do you mean multiple users? Everybody OBVIOUSLY needs their own device! And if your eyes get worse with age, you OBVIOUSLY need a brand new device! Swappable lenses, pfft, what is this, Marxism?

Pretty sure the lenses cost extra. I heard somewhere in the region of $800 I think but I could be misremembering

The inserts are magnetically attached so you can swap ‘em. They said so during wwdc.

Every VR headset needs lenses, and if you have a prescription you get a set for your prescription. If you don’t have a prescription, you get a generic set.

They are magnetic, so sure they can be swapped out. Extra sets for other eyes will cost something.
