Legally Blind Veterans Receive Ray-Ban Meta AI Glasses at WWII Museum

On July 12, 2026, approximately 20 legally blind veterans received Ray-Ban Meta AI glasses at the National World War II Museum in New Orleans. This initiative is part of a collaboration between Meta and the Blinded Veterans Association to distribute advanced assistive technology to blind veterans nationwide. Katie Watson Jordan, Meta’s product strategy and governance policy manager, highlighted the scale of the need, noting that there are 130,000 blind veterans in the U.S. The Ray-Ban Meta AI glasses aim to enhance independence and quality of life for recipients by providing innovative visual assistance.
