Diffractive gratings, one of the most promising near-eye display designs, has been challenging to satisfy the essential features without making sacrifices in output efficiency or the direction of incidence due to the low diffraction efficiency of higher modes at normal incidence. Here, we propose dielectric metagratings that support light deflect to a larger angle with high efficiency within the field of view of 54 degrees. In this paper, through the proposed model of the eye-imaging system, we present optimal designs of metagratings for diffractive total internal reflection combiner or diffractive exit pupil expanders.
