When creating a product vision how far in advance do you plan?

Love this question! Planning for product vision is usually done in 3 horizons: 10 years, 3 years, and 1 year.
The 10-year vision is your guiding, north-star approach that will help guide all other investments overtime. The 3-year vision is a little more actionable and will help shape what the execution plan needs to be. 1 year vision is execution based on what can be accomplished in that current year.

I like to think of the vision to be at least a 5 year plan.
