An eyepiece for projecting an image to an eye of a viewer includes a first planar waveguide positioned in a first lateral plane, a second planar waveguide positioned in a second lateral plane adjacent the first lateral plane, and a third planar waveguide positioned in a third lateral plane adjacent the second lateral plane. The first planar waveguide includes a first diffractive optical element (DOE) coupled thereto and disposed at a first lateral position. The second planar waveguide includes a second DOE coupled thereto and disposed at a second lateral position. The third planar waveguide includes a third DOE coupled thereto and disposed at the second lateral position. The eyepiece further includes an optical filter positioned between the second planar waveguide and the third planar waveguide at the second lateral position.
