VR headset for people with glasses? (self.virtualreality)

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.

Thank you for the tip, the lens insets do seem like the ideal solution, but having the space for glasses might be handy for friends or family as well. It'll be something for me to keep in mind.

Just a quick note: The insets decrease the field of view as you cannot get your face close to the screen.

I'll be honest, I don't notice, mostly because without the rx lenses I can't see shit anyway lol
