Abstract

A head mounted display has a display unit to generate a displayed image, an illumination unit to emit illumination light to the display unit, a projection unit to project image light from the display unit, and a light guide unit to transmit image light from the projection unit to pupils of a user. Here, the illumination unit has light source units, a microlens array that is illuminated by light emitted from the light source units and becomes a virtual secondary light source, a condensing optical member to focus light from the microlens array on the display unit, and a diffusion plate to diffuse light from the microlens array, and the diffusion plate is arranged closer to the condensing optical member than to the microlens array. As a result, a conjugate image is inhibited from being generated with the adoption of a microlens array.
