US prescription requirement for preordering Vision Pro?!

We're an AR startup in the US, but our founders live in Europe. We definitely want to order the VP once it gets available in the States, but I just saw in my mail that Apple requires a US prescription if you wear glasses. This is a bummer for us. We can forward VP to Europe, but we won't be able to travel to the States just to get such a prescription. Why can't Apple just accept any prescription from an optician?!

Isn't this just a matter of translating mm to inches, or something?
