Methods and systems for diagnosing color blindness

A wearable augmented reality device comprising:

• an augmented reality head-mounted ophthalmic system comprising a wearable augmented reality display platform configured to pass the light from the world into an eye of a wearer wearing the head-mounted ophthalmic system, the display platform comprising a display comprising at least one light source and a waveguide stack comprising a plurality of waveguides, wherein each waveguide of the plurality of waveguides comprises:
• in-coupling diffractive optical elements configured to in-couple light from the light source;
• and
• out-coupling diffractive optical elements configured to out-couple light to the eye of the wearer,
• wherein one or more waveguides of the plurality of waveguides are configured to output light with a different amount of wavefront divergence than one or more other waveguides of the plurality of waveguides, wherein the different amounts of wavefront divergence correspond to different depth planes,
• wherein the wearable augmented reality device is configured to selectively modify the light projected from the display based on a color detection deficiency of the wearer.

A method for identifying color detection deficiencies in a person, the method comprising:

• providing an augmented reality head-mounted ophthalmic system comprising a wearable augmented reality display platform comprising:
• a display configured to pass light from the world into an eye of a wearer wearing the head-mounted ophthalmic system, the display comprising at least one light source and a waveguide stack comprising a plurality of waveguides, wherein each waveguide of the plurality of waveguides comprises:
• in-coupling diffractive optical elements configured to in-couple light from the light source;
• and
• out-coupling diffractive optical elements configured to out-couple light to the eye of the wearer,
• wherein one or more waveguides of the plurality of waveguides are configured to output light with a different amount of wavefront divergence than one or more other waveguides of the plurality of waveguides, wherein the different amounts of wavefront divergence correspond to different depth planes,
• displaying a color test image using the display;
• and
• determining a deficiency of the wearer in detecting specific colors based on the color test image.
