Meta Platforms Inc. plans to debut two new Ray-Ban smart glasses models next week intended for prescription wearers.

While the company’s glasses — sold in tandem with EssilorLuxottica SA — have long supported prescription lenses, this will mark the first time the companies are introducing Ray-Bans designed specifically for that cohort, according to people with knowledge of the matter.
