Original Abstract Submitted
a head-mounted device may include optical assemblies for presenting images to a user. each optical assembly may have a support, a fixed lens mounted to the support, and a display configured to provide an image to an eye box through the fixed lens. removable vision correction lenses may be used to correct for user vision defects such as nearsightedness. the vision correction lenses may be removably coupled to the optical assemblies. when coupled to the optical assemblies, the vision correction lenses overlap the fixed lenses. each removable vision correction lens and corresponding optical assembly may have structures such as kinematic mount alignment protrusions and recesses configured to form a kinematic coupling. debris mitigation features may be provided such as alignment structure debris covers, debris collection grooves, magnets for attracting debris, adhesive for gathering debris, and liquid drainage holes to facilitate washing to remove debris.
