Abstract
The diffraction lens has an incident side and an exit side that are both convexly shaped, includes an exit diffraction plane that has an absolute value for the order of diffraction of 5 or greater and is disposed on the exit side, and is shaped such that the absolute value of a curvature at the surface apex of an envelope surface of the exit diffraction plane is smaller than the absolute value of a curvature at the surface apex of an incident surface, or the absolute value of the amount of sag in the direction of the optical axis at an outer periphery of the envelope surface of the exit diffraction plane is smaller than the maximum absolute value of the amount of sag in the direction of the optical axis at an outer periphery of the incident surface.
