AR Computers to Terminate Eyestrain and Myopia


Augmented reality smart glasses feature a near-eye display (NED) that actively projects computer-generated images (CGI) onto the retina, which allows the eyes to passively receive digital information, rather than actively read it. As the principle is similar to the fundus examination in which the doctor shines light from an ophthalmoscope onto the retina, it can be said that an AR PC is an "ophthalmoscope with a computer host". The article explores AR PC's ability to terminate eyestrain and its role in the prevention of myopia.

As long as the refractive error is corrected, the parallel light will naturally focus on the retina, people of any age can get a clear picture, so the elderly do not need reading glasses when using AR computers. ↑ Alexandra Benavente-Pérez, Ann Nour, David Troilo; Axial Eye Growth and Refractive Error Development Can Be Modified by Exposing the Peripheral Retina to Relative Myopic or Hyperopic Defocus.
