The product has a diopter adjustment built in, so glasses- and contacts-wearers can use the glasses without wearing additional vision correction (up to a point – the company doesn’t specify the exact adjustment range).

Can companies at freaking least do me the favour and reject visually impaired me openly instead of implicitly?

Couldn't agree more, and what about asymmetric prescriptions? This has been part of why I've never really been able to get into VR in general, the accessibility of it just isn't there.
