With essentially one eye to use, can Vision Pro even be workable? Can Apple make accommodations for single eye vision problems? is this question ridiculous?

Apple Vision Pro
Hi scott_boydman
welcome to the Apple (user-to-user) Community.
Re: Vision Pro - Blindness in one eye :With essentially one eye to use, can Vision Pro even be workable?
There is another discussion thread on a similar situation that may help answer your question:
Eg: Now that Vision Pro as actually been released in the US... new information is being shared.
See: does vision pro work for people with only… - Apple Community
All the best :-)
The parallel conversation thread only addresses the availability of assigning one eye only to control the Vision Pro interface. My issue is more granular, since having only one eye makes the presentation of a second image to the blind eye useless. So again, will Vision Pro perform satisfactorily for persons having vision in only a single eye, and can Apple make accommodation for such a condition? Thank you.
I would guess the answer is no, you will not be able to use them. But you should try them before taking my word. Schedule a time at your local Apple Store. I offer that opinion because my daughter only sees out of one eye at a time - a little different than you but still one-eyed. As a result, she cannot see 3D movies as the rest of us do. And she cannot use her son's VR headgear to play games. But as I said, there is only one way to find out if things are different with the Vision Pros.
As for Apple making accommodations for this condition, contact Apple Support to ask. They may be able to answer your original question, too.

If you get a chance to demo the Vision Pro, please review here. I have no vision in one eye and have been wondering what this experience may be like. I am not expecting much, nothing 3D has ever really worked. Maybe one day they will be able to plug the camera into my brain, bypassing the useless nerve.
I will certainly do that. I would think that Apple will give some thought to this issue. There certainly are certain clues that can be used to convey 3D style information with a monocular viewing experience. The software would then have to provide as much of these cues as possible, and then present the image to the eye with functional vision. Of course, I expect limitations as to the experience or its immersive properties, but in general, I don't see any reason why this type of accommodation cannot be made to allow for single eye use of Vision Pro. I would be grateful if Apple would take notice and directly address this problem, not just provide for navigation and selection features for a single eye.
