Methods and systems for diagnosing eye conditions, including macular degeneration
First Claim
Patent Images
1. A wearable augmented reality display device comprising:
- a light source configured to output light for propagation into an eye of a wearer of the wearable augmented reality display device to form an image in the eye; and
a stack of waveguides configured to pass light from the world into the eye of the wearer, wherein each of the waveguides is configured to in-couple light from the light source and present augmented reality content to the wearer, the augmented reality content comprising a user interface configured to receive input from the wearer, wherein each waveguide of the one or more waveguides is configured to guide the in-coupled light therein by total internal reflection between opposing surfaces of the waveguide, and wherein one or more waveguides of the stack of waveguides are configured to output the light to the eye with a different amount of wavefront divergence than one or more other waveguides of the stack of waveguides,wherein the wearable augmented reality device is configured to project the image to a particular portion of the wearer'"'"'s eye and to detect a response regarding the image to determine the health of that portion of the eye.
