Abstract
To allow light from one or one group of light sources to be used for a plurality of applications. A lens structure for a vehicle lamp includes a light transmitter and a reflective surface. The light transmitter is configured to transmit light in a predetermined horizontal direction. The reflective surface is provided at an upper portion of an end portion of the light transmitter in the predetermined horizontal direction. A direction perpendicular to the reflective surface is inclined toward a direction opposite to the predetermined horizontal direction from a direction directly downward. The reflective surface totally reflects the light travelling in the predetermined horizontal direction downward. The light transmitted from below the reflective surface in the light transmitter in the predetermined horizontal direction radiates in the predetermined horizontal direction, and the light reflected by the reflective surface illuminates a road surface.
