Overview
- Meta and EssilorLuxottica introduced the Blayzer Optics and Scriber Optics on Tuesday, with preorders open now and retail sales set for April 14 in the U.S. and select international markets.
- The two styles are redesigned for prescriptions with overextension hinges, interchangeable nose pads, and optician‑adjustable temple tips to fit thicker lenses, including progressives and Transitions.
- Pricing starts at $499 before lenses, and the glasses use Meta’s Gen 2 non‑display hardware with a 12‑megapixel camera, speakers, and on‑device Meta AI.
- New software features include hands‑free nutrition logging that records a voice prompt or meal photo to a food log in the Meta AI app for U.S. users aged 18 and up.
- Meta says the frames support nearly all prescriptions, but orders placed on Meta’s site still follow a ±6 range, so users with stronger scripts will need an optician or retail partner such as LensCrafters or Sunglass Hut.
