  Wide field of view and light weight optics are critical for advanced eyewear,
with applications in augmented/virtual reality and night vision. Conventional
refractive lenses are often stacked to correct aberrations at wide field of
view, leading to limited performance and increased size and weight. In
particular, simultaneously achieving wide field of view and large aperture for
light collection is desirable but challenging to realize in a compact
form-factor. Here, we demonstrate a wide field of view (greater than
60$^\circ$) meta-optic doublet eyepiece with an entrance aperture of 2.1 cm. At
the design wavelength of 633 nm, the meta-optic doublet achieves comparable
performance to a refractive lens-based eyepiece system. This meta-doublet
eyepiece illustrates the potential for meta-optics to play an important role in
the development of high-quality monochrome near-eye display and night vision
systems.
