Meta sold more than seven million smart glasses last year. This is according to the annual report of the world's largest eyewear manufacturer EssilorLuxottica, which the company published on Wednesday evening. EssilorLuxottica develops and sells the smart glasses together with Meta.

A year ago, it was said that two million smart glasses were sold and that the annual production capacity was to be increased to 10 million units by the end of 2026. In the summer, the company announced that sales had more than tripled compared to the previous year. A quarter later, EssilorLuxottica stated that smart glasses now accounted for a third of its revenue growth and that plans to increase production were being further accelerated.
