A head-mounted display device that is worn on a head of a viewer when used, the head-mounted display device comprising:
- a first display portion that is disposed in front of a pupil of the viewer gazing forward, while facing the pupil, the first display portion displaying a first image;
- a second display portion that is disposed close to an ear of the viewer and diagonally in front of the pupil, while facing the pupil, the second display portion displaying a second image;
- a first eyepiece having a first display-portion-side lens surface and a first viewer-side lens surface, disposed between the pupil and the first display portion, and projecting the first image onto the pupil, the first display-portion-side lens surface being a surface closer to the first display portion than the viewer, the first viewer-side lens surface being a surface closer to the viewer than the first display portion;
- and
- a second eyepiece having a second display-portion-side lens surface and a second viewer-side lens surface, disposed between the pupil and the second display portion, and projecting the second image onto the pupil, the second display-portion-side lens surface being a surface closer to the second display portion than the viewer, the second viewer-side lens surface being a surface closer to the viewer than the second display portion,
- wherein
- the second eyepiece is disposed adjacent to the first eyepiece at a position closer to an ear of the viewer than the first eyepiece is, and
- an optical axis of the first eyepiece and an optical axis of the second eyepiece intersect with each other at an angle ranging from 30 degrees to 80 degrees inclusive.
