The first day I changed to contacts nobody could recognize me. It plays more into recognition than you think.
Got a tip for us?

The people you speak of are essentially the same folks who still haven't figured out that Clark Kent and Superman are one in the same. 🙄
I am honestly so excited for all the reviews and first impressions of the Vision Pro. Only a few months to go!
I think in the end it will come down to comfort, I’ve got the PSVR 2 which is really great but honestly you do get sick of being in there, plus does get quite a bit sweaty after a while…

That's a good point. Perhaps Apple could let glasses companies supply 3D models of their glasses catalog for people to use. That way users could pick the frame that they have.
Only an overly sensitive fool would interpret what I said as “ableist”. I have worn glasses for most of my life as well, but my identity is not tied to something I wear on my head that helps with my vision.
If not now, later.
I'm in favour of them shipping an incomplete v1 so we can get on with this, and custom glasses seem an entirely cuttable feature (and I need glasses, to be clear).

Given that 79% of Americans wear eye correction of some sort:
"Vision Correction: 204.1 million U.S. adults (79 percent) use a form of vision correction— including eyeglasses, prescription sunglasses, reading glasses, and contact lenses."
I feel Apple and all other VR/AR headset makers should be required to have adjustable lenses in their headsets as standard, so that people do not have to mess with trying to wear glasses inside the devises or be forced to purchace additional corrective lenses.
Think about how when you use many other optical devices you turn dials to focus them to your eyes, this should apply to these headsets also.

Yes the horror - you might have to spend a whole 30 seconds choosing the glasses for the avatar your headset created for you! How can we live in such an awful world!
Companies like Warby Parker should have a glasses app in the App Store where you can buy their virtual frames.
