ABSTRACT:
A head-mounted display apparatus wherein an image displayed on an image display device is projected on an observer's eyeball, which is designed so that the displayed image can be observed at a desired angle of view and at a desired magnification by making the projection magnification changeable. The head-mounted image display apparatus includes an image display device (11) for displaying an image, and a projection optical system for projecting the image displayed on the image display device (11) onto an observer's eyeball. The projection optical system is composed of a first relay optical system (12), a second relay optical system (13), and an ocular optical system (14). The second relay optical system (13), which is an afocal optical system, is rotatable about an axis (16) perpendicular to the optical axis so that the projection magnification is changed in three steps by the rotation of the second relay optical system (13).
