Those looking to take their Snapchat Spectacles to the next level by transforming them into prescription glasses can now look into doing so with Rochester Optical. The company has previously worked with wearable technologies such as Google Glass and the Microsoft HoloLens to give the glasses a prescription effect.
The Snapchat Spectacles have remained a somewhat exclusive piece of social media technology with the devices only being sold through pop-up vending machines. However, the move by Rochester Optical to help turn them into prescription glasses makes them that much more suitable for an array of users who might require corrective lenses.
A pair of lenses for your Snapchat Spectacles from Rochester Optical will set you back $99 and up.
