I don't think most support foveated rendering, currently.

But there are consumed ones available / becoming available:

* HP Reverb G2 Omnicept Edition

* HTC Vive Pro Eye

Just because they track eyes doesn't mean they gonna use it for rendering. That's probably for input.

Directly from the HP product page:

"NVIDIA VR Ready Quadro or GeForce Turing based GPU required for foveated rendering. For developers, Unity foveated rendering plug-in and run-time are also required and available from the Unity Store or HP Developer Portal"
