There's a difference between medical devices and spy cameras, though: Meta's glasses do nothing for visual impairment beyond what any regular eyeglasses could do, and -- as far as I know -- they don't offer any other health benefits. They're at best an expensive toy, and at worst, a major violation of public trust.

    Medical glasses are probably absurdly expensive, though. If you can jury-rig pervert glasses to work, you might save thousands (much like people who use AirPods as hearing aids; they probably aren't as good, but good hearing aids can be 10x or more the price, and we live in a capitalist hellscape where that's an obstacle).
