Abstract
A display apparatus includes an image forming device and a light guide. The light guide includes an incident portion and an emission portion including a plurality of mirrors. In the light guide, the total reflection surface is disposed to be inclined with respect to a virtual plane perpendicular to a visual axis, and the mirrors are disposed to be inclined with respect to the total reflection surface. The mirror angle is set such that the light guide angle, the mirror angle, the light angle, the limit incidence angle, and the refractive index of the light guide satisfy the predetermined relationship.
