Apple’s upcoming Vision Pro headset is set to bring a new level of customization for users requiring corrective lenses, thanks to a partnership with ZEISS.

With its launch just around the corner, details about how users can pair ZEISS Optical Inserts with the Vision Pro have emerged.

Here’s an explainer on it.

Customizing Vision Pro with ZEISS Inserts

ZEISS, a well known name in the realm of optical apparatus, has teamed up with Apple to offer specialised corrective lenses for the Vision Pro.

These lenses cater to a range of visual needs, from reading glasses to prescription lenses.

Pairing Process

Upon attaching the lenses magnetically to the Vision Pro, a specific pairing process is initiated.

This process involves verifying the unique code and serial number on the optical inserts, ensuring that the headset aligns correctly with the lenses for optimal visual clarity.

A Step-by-Step Guide to Pairing

• Vision Pro enthusiast M1Astra demonstrated the pairing process in a shared video. After attaching the lenses, the user puts on the headset and presses the Digital Crown to proceed. 
• The next step involves scanning the ZEISS Optical Inserts pairing code, found either in the lens package or potentially in the Health app. 
• This code, resembling an App Clip code, is essential for the pairing process, which cannot be bypassed when new lenses are attached.
• Once the Vision Pro verifies and pairs the lenses, users must recalibrate the eye-tracking feature. This recalibration is a standard procedure, applicable to all users, regardless of their need for corrective lenses. 
• In addition, after attaching new optical inserts, the Optic ID settings need reconfiguration, ensuring the device works seamlessly with the newly paired lenses.

Smart Identification of Multiple Lenses

For users with multiple pairs of lenses, the Vision Pro system is designed to intelligently recognize which lenses are being used.

This feature allows the headset to automatically adjust settings for the best visual experience based on the specific lenses in use.

First Apple Vision Pro pre-orders now shipping to buyers for February 2 launch. Details?

After pre-orders kicked off on Friday, the first Apple Vision Pro shipments are on their way to early buyers. Vision Pro orders are departing Apple’s facilities via UPS.

If you check your Vision Pro order status via Apple’s website, you’ll likely see that your device is still “preparing to ship.”

This is because Apple waits until closer to the official release date of a new product to update the shipping status on its end, even if the actual package is now in the hands of its shipping partner.

The best way to do this is to enroll in the UPS My Choice platform. This will automatically show you all packages you have coming to your address, including your Vision Pro.

Alternatively, you can use the “Track by Reference Number” feature on the UPS website.
The reference number is likely the phone number listed on your Apple order or your order number without the last two digits.

One thing to keep in mind, however, is that UPS has made some changes to the “Track by Reference Number” feature “for improved security.” This means your best bet is to enroll in My Choice instead.

Can a Vision Pro arrive ahead of schedule?

Apple works closely with its partners like UPS to ensure all pre-orders are delivered no earlier than launch day, which is February 2 in the case of Vision Pro.
