Apple to sell Apple Watch with blood oxygen detection removed to bypass ITC import ban
Let’s just hope that Apple doesn’t repeat this of they ever get glucose monitoring working.I would expect blood oxygen to return in Watch 10 or 11.

Apple Watch ban back on, court denies Apple's appeal to keep it on the market
Well, well… how the turn tables.
Apple will find a way but it will take until watch 10 or 11. No quick fix here.

What you need to order Apple Vision Pro from the Apple Store online
Not an optometrist, but I’ve worn glasses and contacts all my life. You won’t use the “main” (or distance) prescription for VP. You’ll be getting the “near” prescription since the focusing surface of the display will be up close. There will be no “progressive” prescription, bifocal, or trifocal for VP. There will be only one and it will be up close or near, essentially “readers”.beowulfschmidt said:bloggerblog said:For the prescription glasses, I assume you'd need to order a different prescription if you wear progressives.
My progressive prescription has two sets of values, one for the "main" prescription, and one for the reading prescription (I assume there is some algorithm to produce the gradient), but I expect most people are going to want the "main", possibly modified by some factor having to do with the distance actually being focused, as opposed to the apparent distance. My eye doctor explained it to me once, but I'm not sure I understood everything he said.I can’t focus on objects closer than 15cm from my eyes because I have, like most over 40, Presbyopia. Your eyeballs harden/lose elasticity as you age, and your eye muscles that pull on your eyeballs to adjust focus can’t distort your eyes to focus closely. Simple lenses correct this, but only for close vision. There is no near or far in VP because the image is on a display, not 20cm or 100m from your face. It’s all up close.That’s all you’ll need for VP. It’s not rocket science.
