Abstract

A method for detecting a user's gaze using an augmented reality device including a vision correction lens is provided. The method may include: acquiring lens characteristic information of a vision correction lens that is superimposed on a light guide plate for displaying an image output from an augmented reality device in the direction of the user's gaze; emitting light for gaze tracking toward a light reflector through a light emitting unit installed in a part of a support member of the augmented reality device, wherein the emitted light is reflected by the light reflector and directed toward the eye of a user wearing the augmented reality device; receiving the light reflected by the user's eye through a light receiver installed in the support member; acquiring an image of the user's eye based on the light received through the light receiver; compensating the user's eye image based on the lens characteristic information of the vision correction lens; and acquiring user gaze information based on the compensated eye image.
