NEW Meta AI Smart Glasses

Meta AI glasses have revolutionized the low vision world for those with mild visual impairment to total visual loss.  Meta Glasses allow a user to “see” using a camera embedded into the front of their eyeglass frame.  The camera can take pictures and video and is linked to an audio controlled personal assistant similar to Siri or Alexa.   With voice or touch activation, a user can have the glasses read documents, read signs, summarize the news, read text messages, answer phone calls and more!

How Meta Glasses Help People with Vision Loss

Meta glasses use advanced AI technology to support people who are visually impaired in their everyday lives by providing information, independence, and confidence.

Describe your surroundings
Users can ask questions such as “What am I looking at?” or “What am I holding?” to receive clear, real-time descriptions of their environment and nearby objects.

Read and summarize text around you
The glasses can read text from menus, signs, brochures, airport gate displays, mail, fast-food menus, sports scores, and more. Unlike many traditional low-vision devices that read text word for word, Meta glasses first provide a brief summary of what you are viewing. This saves time and allows users to ask follow-up questions if they want more detail.

Hands-free voice control
Because the glasses are worn, users can interact completely hands-free. You can answer or decline phone calls, listen to music, and read or respond to text messages using simple voice commands.

Instant access to information
The glasses act as a personal assistant, providing immediate access to information from the internet. Users often ask questions like “What are today’s news headlines?” or “Tell me about the plant I’m looking at.” When traveling, the glasses can describe landmarks, monuments, and provide historical or contextual information.

Integration with low-vision apps
Meta glasses can connect with the Be My Eyes® app, allowing users to call a sighted volunteer through live video for real-time assistance when needed.

A discreet low-vision aid
Wearers appreciate that these glasses do not look like a medical or assistive device. Their familiar appearance helps users feel confident and comfortable using them in public.

Prescription lenses available
Meta glasses can be fitted with prescription lenses. While Ray-Ban offers prescription services, many low-vision prescriptions fall outside standard ranges. Voyage Eye Care can create custom prescription lenses through our in-house optical laboratory. Please call our office for more information.
