Abstract: Technology is described for reducing display update time for a near-eye display (NED) device. A point of focus in the NED field of view is identified, often based on natural user input data. A communication module of a computer system communicatively coupled to the NED device transmits lossless priority data, an example of which is user focal region image data, using one or more communication techniques for satisfying lossless transmission criteria. Allowed loss image data is identified based at least in part on its distance vector from a point of focus in the display field of view. An example of allowed loss image data is image data to be displayed outside the user focal region. The allowed loss image data is transmitted and extracted from received image data allowing for lossy transmission.
