Abstract

We propose to size a light field display based on a standard smartphone screen to which is associated a simple array of custom-made microlenses, aimed at evaluating the refractive error of a user’s eye. We show theoretically that, to that end, we can display some content with a constant angular resolution over a wide range of refractive errors, i.e., ${-}{6{\rm D}}$ to ${+}{4{\rm D}}$ in terms of sphero-cylindrical needs, and show some experimental results.
