Blind doesn't always mean no vision at all. Wearing a device that's always looking where your head is pointing means having a device that can describe your surroundings to you. And as they pointed out, it can magnify what you're looking at so you can read it.

Not massively useful for the current vision Pro, I'm sure, but future devices, smaller devices could be very cool.

Great point that it’s a start

Ya we don’t all learn very early about blind not being absolute maybe unless specified

Gosh imagine profound deaf + totally blind, glad someone cares to design for folks

@DJDarren @dzso I have not yet looked at the innovations Apple came up with in 2025 but you do have to give that company credit for the fact that they are working hard, and did work hard, to keep stuff accessible for handicapped people in whatever way handicapped.

Name one other non-specialised company that the same.
I can’t.
