Apple Vision Pro users suffer black eyes, headaches, neck pain from $3,500 goggles
NY Post
Apple Vision Pro users are reporting that their high-priced goggles are giving them black eyes, headaches and neck pain.
Emily Olman, head of marketing at the California-based real estate photography firm Hopscotch International, told MarketWatch that she suffered two “superdark black eyes” after wearing the Vision Pro for the first time.
“I wasn’t able to use it very much the first few weeks because the fit was just off,” she said.
Olman lamented that the 22-ounce headset “clearly [placed] too much weight on my cheeks.”
Ian Beacraft, the CEO of consulting firm Signal, told the news site that wearing the device caused him pain at the base of his skull and upper back after a two-hour session.
The comments by Olman and Beacraft echo those of Reddit users who have reported various ailments as a result of wearing the goggles, which have a starting price of $3,500,.
DEAR ABBY: I recently married an old high school flame after 30 years apart. Since we are both in our 50s, we wanted a low-key ceremony — no wedding, no fuss, just us, madly in love and doing our thing. My older sister, the only person we told, begged me to be included — “At least let me sign as witness. At least let me bring a cake. At least let me do flowers.” We took her with us to the courthouse, and she took many pictures, which will be cherished.
