You’ll be able to adjust the diopters in the Glyph to accommodate a wide variety of prescriptions and pupillary distances. In short: you won’t need your glasses.

This is great! The problem with head-mounted display is getting tired easily after prolonged use. Hope this one overcomes that.

Found a review in CNET:

What about for us old folk that need reading glasses but see long distances fine?
