If you need to order or replace your ZEISS Optical Inserts

If you require prescription eyeglasses, including for astigmatism, you might be able to order prescription ZEISS Optical Inserts that you can use with Apple Vision Pro. Learn how to order or replace ZEISS Optical Inserts.

What you need before you order

To purchase ZEISS Optical Inserts for Apple Vision Pro, you need a legible comprehensive prescription. Here's the information your comprehensive prescription should contain:

  • Your distance correction and near correction needs, indicated separately but on the same prescription sheet. This is known as the full manifest refraction.

  • An expiration date, which should not be expired.

  • Your date of birth, your full name, and your prescriber’s license number and signature.

Intermediate distance, task distance, or computer distance should not be part of that prescription, and contact lens prescriptions are not accepted. If you’re not sure if your prescription is comprehensive, consult an eye care provider and reference the description in this article.

ZEISS Optical Inserts are available for the vast majority of corrections, including for customers who normally use progressive or bifocal lenses. A very small percentage of people have a prism value added to their glasses prescription. At this time, ZEISS cannot manufacture ZEISS Optical Inserts based on a prescription containing prism value. If you have a prism value, it is labeled on your prescription and noted separately from sphere, cylinder, axis, and ADD values. If you’re not sure if your prescription includes prism, consult with an eye care provider.

Depending on your prescription, your vision needs might not be met through ZEISS Optical Inserts.
