Described are various embodiments of a light field device, optical aberration compensation or simulation rendering method and vision testing system using same. In one embodiment, the device comprises a digital display comprising a set of pixels; an array of light field shaping elements (LFSE) disposed relative to the set of pixels so to at least partially govern a light field emanated thereby; and a digital processor operable to: receive as input one or more higher order aberration parameters digitally defining a higher order aberration; for each given pixel, identify an adjusted image plane location corresponding thereto given a corresponding LFSE corresponding thereto and given said one or more higher order aberration parameters, and associate therewith an adjusted image value designated for the adjusted image location; and render for each said given pixel said adjusted image value associated therewith.
