I just received my AVP.

Pretty impressed so far except one issue.

The text/graphics displayed in the right eye (right screen) are pixelated/blurry compared to the perfectly clear text being displayed in the left eye.

Try closing your eyes in the AVP one at a time and let me know if this is just me...

Waiting for mine to arrive today. In the meantime, this could be a limitation of your eyeballs more than the AVP itself. Do you wear glasses, or have an astigmatism? When was the last time you had your eyes checked?

I am having a similar problem, did the calibration a few times and it didnt help at all. I am finding the text hard to focus on, especially when connected to a Mac. May need to go back to the store, but we spend 90 minutes trying to find the right size and this is as close as we could get.

I have 20-15 vision corrected with Lasik last year. The video pass through feed to the right eye is perfectly clear, as is SOME text during the eye calibration setup. But then any text overlayed on the passthrough video feed after that is super pixelated in just the right eye

Sigh, more issues. Well... joy!

I think I need to do that calibration again. I wasn’t really certain what I was supposed to be doing?

Same here; I had Lasik actually twice and there’s days that is super blurry (the UI, the passthrough for now would always be kind of blurry) but if I move the LightSeal it helps a bit, I am wondering what could it be? And yes, I’ve done that calibration like 8 times at this point

Make sure your lenses are clean. I have gotten blurriness several times on the right eye, most likely due to my eyelashes making contact. I switched to the thicker pad, and that has helped, but if I'm looking up, I sometimes get too close and need to clean the lenses again. I'm using the 21W with Zeiss inserts (prescription). I may try a 22W to get slightly further away from the lenses.

I went to the optomoligst today and they suggested a dry eyes test. Lo and behold - I was super out of range. they put some blockers in my eyes and things are WAY better now. Totally recommended for LASIK treated people they told me.
