Came here to say this.

Meta is a terrible company, but smart glasses are a game changer for blind/low vision folks.

Both can be true at the same time.

I have a feeling that Apple will have a better product in the end, one that is more privacy conscious. They can use a front facing indicator, or even keep it to sensors, while avoiding a camera completely.

I would love a medicalized version of smart glasses for low vision folks that provided both distance magnification and close-in magnification based on where the user is looking. The existing bioptic glasses with a telescope are very heavy, clunky to focus, and, for lack of a better word, disfiguring.
