We present an innovative augmented reality display to project information on the perifovea. Our system uses a contact lens embedding various diffractive optical elements (DOE) and switchable light sources. The DOEs are located at the iris periphery, keeping the visual axis free of any disturbance while allowing AR content projection onto the perifovea. The use of DOEs limits the quantity of displayable information for instance to some warning symbols but allows the design of more easily manufacturable elements. A proof of concept using a mock up eye (scale 2:1) to assess the impact of laser injection and mydriasis on image reconstruction quality is presented together with a video showing how the system operates dynamically.
