Lead lenses for hospital workers

I am writing today to suggest that Meta adds the option for lead lenses for healthcare workers working in x-ray all day, like cardiac catheterization lab, electrophysiology lab, or interventional radiology. I am sure there's more that would also use them. How sweet would it be that your doctor is wearing Meta glasses during your procedure and being able to access research or your chart without leaving scrub table while protecting the doctors eyes from radiation that cause cataracts. Yes it may be a small sample of people that would order these. But they would be so valuable to the people that do. Ray Ban and Oakley already are partner with lead companies, selling radiation glasses with them. This would be taking it to a whole new level.

  • Technically, if you're talking about the Ray-Ban Meta, specialized stores making lead lenses should be able to make them for this frame.

    If you're talking about the Meta Display, it's another story because of the integrated wave guide. I doubt the number of potential users would justify this.
