Apple Vision Pro's visionOS 3 will let you scroll with your eyes, Bloomberg's Mark Gurman reports.

Currently, you scroll in visionOS by keeping your index finger pinched to your thumb and moving them up or down vertically as if pulling a very thin rope, with which interface is scrolled determined by where your eyes are looking.

This works well, but definitely requires more physical exertion than scrolling a mouse or touchscreen.
