Abstract

In a vehicle lamp configured to emit light from a plurality of light emitting elements to a lamp front via a projection lens, a horizontally-long light distribution pattern can be formed as a clear light distribution pattern even in a case where a substrate is inclined in a left-right direction with respect to a vertical plane perpendicular to a lamp front-back direction. A projection lens is divided into a first lens region for controlling direct light from six first light emitting elements located closer to a front end portion of a substrate and a second lens region for controlling direct light from six second light emitting elements located closer to a back end portion of the substrate, and a focal length of the second lens region is set to a value greater than a focal length of the first lens region.
