Hi Mary! Thank you for reaching out with this question! To give you the most accurate details for the Ray-Ban Meta Wayfarer Large (Gen 1 / Ray-Ban Stories) glasses you mentioned, while these glasses feature open-ear audio speakers and a built-in camera to take photos or videos, they do not support the hands-free "Look and Read" text-to-speech features found in our newer Gen 2 models. The Gen 1 glasses can read aloud your incoming text notifications, WhatsApp messages, or phone calls directly to your ears hands-free. However, to scan printed mail, menus, or paper documents out loud using Meta AI, you would need to upgrade to the newer Ray-Ban Meta (Gen 2) smart glasses. The Gen 2 model introduces full artificial intelligence reading capabilities and integrates seamlessly with assistive platforms like the Be My Eyes app for the blind and low-vision community. Because of these incredibly helpful accessibility features, I would personally recommend going for the Gen 2 AI glasses to ensure you get the absolute best hands-free experience. We hope this helps clarify what each generation can do, and please let us know if you have any other questions about picking out the right pair for your needs!
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.
