Abstract
A head-mounted display device having: an image display element displaying a two-dimensional image; an eyepiece magnifying and projecting the image displayed by the image display element; and a holder holding the image display element and the eyepiece, so that the viewer's eyeball sees, through the eyepiece, a magnified virtual image of the image displayed by the image display element. The image display element is a two-dimensional display device having the shape of a matrix, composed of a central portion which is flat, and a left side portion and a right side portion each of which has a sheet-like shape whose cross-section along a horizontal plane is curved toward the eyepiece away from the extension line of the central portion. In the image display element, pixels in the left and right side portions and are greater in size than pixels in the central portion.
