Attach your ZEISS Optical Inserts

You need to attach your ZEISS Optical Inserts before you put on your device and begin set up.

  1. Place your Apple Vision Pro inside its cover and set it on a level surface.

  2. Hold one ZEISS Optical Insert by its edges to avoid fingerprints. Each ZEISS Optical Insert is laser marked with an “L” or an “R” to indicate left or right. The white line on the top of each ZEISS Optical Insert indicates the top. Position the ZEISS Optical Insert with its “L” or “R” indicator pointing inwards, towards the nose bridge.

  3. Place the ZEISS Optical Insert over the display. It snaps into place magnetically when connected. Repeat for the second ZEISS Optical Insert. You need to attach both ZEISS Optical Inserts, even if you only need vision correction for one eye.

  4. Put your Vision Pro on, making sure to handle it by the frame. Then follow the steps to pair your ZEISS Optical Inserts.

Pair your ZEISS Optical Inserts

If you attach your ZEISS Optical Inserts before using Apple Vision Pro for the first time, you complete pairing during initial setup. If you purchase and attach ZEISS Optical Inserts later, your device automatically prompts you to complete pairing. You will need the pairing code that came with your ZEISS Optical Inserts. You can also set up or pair your ZEISS Optical Inserts later in Settings.

If you have an iPhone or iPad associated with the same Apple ID as your Apple Vision Pro, a health record will automatically be added to the Health app, including your prescription, serial number, and pairing code of your ZEISS Optical Inserts. This gives you easy access to the pairing code directly from your iPhone or iPad.

After you register your ZEISS Optical Inserts, you can look them up and find your pairing code.
