A vision-correcting light field display that can address ametropia, particularly astigmatism, is proposed. Plenoptic functions reconstructing a 3D object are computationally controlled through the genetic algorithm to compensate for eyes’ refractive errors with no extra volume and cost. Resolution after the correction negligibly degrades compared with emmetropia.
