Meta has reportedly invested $3.5 billion in EssilorLuxottica, acquiring just under 3% of the eyewear conglomerate.
Meta is considering additional investments, which could increase its stake to around 5% over time.
The partnership between Meta and EssilorLuxottica has been extended until 2030, aiming to turn glasses into a major technology platform.
The collaboration between Meta and EssilorLuxottica will result in the release of Oakley Meta HSTN, offering improved features over previous smart glasses.
