I was going to impulse buy it but then they have put so many barriers that impulse buy is not possible. You must measure your face and have eye prescription ready! Wtf? I am in my bed and not going to do that for the privilege of pressing buy button. Now it’s not surprising that it’s still not sold out.

I thought it was crazy you're supposed to download an app to measure your head to get your band size when I have two soft tape measures laying around.
The shape of your face and how big your nose is also matters.
You don’t need the prescription on hand, you upload it after the fact. Whole process took like 2 minutes in the Apple Store app ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
You can enter your prescription later.
They didn't said that. Classic sales mistake.
