Abstract

In an embodiment, an augmented reality display is provided that incorporates a prescription lens for the wearer. In an embodiment, an image is generated from a display and directed into the edge of the prescription lens, and the lens acts as a waveguide. The image is internally reflected within the prescription lens, and is directed to the wearer by an image combiner embedded within the prescription lens. In an embodiment, the augmented reality display can be adjusted for many common vision problems including myopia, hyperopia, astigmatism, and presbyopia.
