An eyepiece for a head wearable display includes a light guide component for guiding display light received at a peripheral location and emitting the display light at a viewing region. The light guide component includes an eye-ward facing surface having a reflection portion and a viewing portion, a folding surface oriented to reflect the display light received into the light guide component to the reflection portion of the eye-ward facing surface, and a first interface surface oriented to receive the display light reflected from the reflection portion of the eye-ward facing surface. A partially reflective layer is disposed on the first interface surface in the viewing region to reflect the display light through viewing portion of the eye-ward facing surface.
