Abstract
A vehicle lamp includes a light source, and a lens. The lens includes a central region centered on an optical axis of the lamp and a peripheral region located around the central region. A rear surface of the peripheral region is formed with plural total reflection prism elements which reflects light emitted from the light source toward the front of the vehicle lamp in a state of being aligned in a concentric circular form centered on the optical axis. The rear surface of the peripheral region includes an inner periphery-side region and an outer periphery-side region. The plurality of total reflection prism elements form a first annular concave curved surface centered on the optical axis as an envelope surface in the inner periphery-side region and form a second annular concave curved surface centered on the optical axis as an envelope surface in the outer periphery-side region.
