ok well this one took off - if you're wondering whether I know what I'm talking about, I wrote a paper (with @anthropunk.bsky.social ) on the original Meta glasses when they were called "Project Aria" and predicted this sort of result www.sciencedirect.com/science/arti...

My optician was offering Meta sunglasses for about two weeks until customers enlightened them and they withdraw the offer. What surprised me is that a brand like RayBan fell for it as Meta glasses were made with their frames

Considering Ray-Bans are owned by EssilorLuxottica (which owns 100s of brands, including up and down the vertical supply chain, and dominates the market), not surprising. The conglomerate is big on wearables and AR glasses. If Ray-Bans or Oakleys take a hit, they'll swap it with another brand.
