Ray-Ban Meta smart glasses become an intuitive accessibility tool through Be My Eyes, offering object recognition and live help at the wearer’s command.

August 20, 2025 //  by Finnovate

Ray-Ban Meta smart glasses are not experimental hardware for early adopters. They are designed for anyone to wear daily. That is the shift. Meta may not have set out to design an accessibility tool. However, by focusing on natural interaction, not screens or buttons, the glasses open the door to new ways of participating in the world. That shift, whether intentional or not, makes them worth a closer look. That potential becomes even more powerful when paired with human insight and real-world use. That is precisely what Be My Eyes is delivering. Be My Eyes has become an essential mobile experience for many blind and low-vision users, a go-to tool for accessing the visual world through real-time human connection. The platform supports nearly 1 million users and is powered by over 8.8 million sighted volunteers who offer assistance via live video calls. With Ray-Ban Meta, Mike Buckley, CEO of Be My Eyes explained, the service moves from the palm of your hand to the bridge of your nose. Real-time environmental information, object recognition, and volunteer support are now available without lifting a finger.  What stands out now is this. While Meta and EssilorLuxottica are the brands behind the Ray-Ban Meta glasses, the real breakthrough is Be My Eyes. They are not just adding functionality. They are changing how vision support is delivered as something intuitive, integrated, and empowering. With a simple voice command, “Call a volunteer,” they have transformed smart glasses into a tool for independence, dignity, and connection. And they have done it at scale. This is not just about innovation. It is about expanding who can participate and making accessibility part of everyday life.
