VR headset for people with glasses? (lemmy.world)

A few years back I got my brother's old htc vive VR headset. While I did greatly enjoy playing beat saber on it, I eventually stopped using it as it required me to take off my glasses. I can see semi-okay without glasses but it really tires me quickly and at the end of the day it was a no-go. My glasses don't fit inside the headset and I'm not going to wear lenses (mild phobia about having anything near my eyes).

Which VR headset out there allows for enough room to wear glasses? If it's the playstation one i wouldn't mind getting a ps5, I'm really open to suggestions.

Thanks for any advice you can give.

I have a Samsung Odyssey plus (Windows Mixed Reality, it's getting kind of old at this point) and I was able to 3D print inserts for it and use lenses from a cheap pair of Zenni glasses. In total, it cost me around $30 USD and I wasn't expecting much from it, but after I slipped them on it was just as great as using contacts!
