Abstract
A vehicle headlamp includes a projection lens, a light source arranged behind a rear focal point of the projection lens, and an optical member that controls light emitted from the light source. The optical member includes a shade that is located near the rear focal point of the projection lens and shields a portion of the light emitted from the light source to form a cutoff line of a light distribution pattern, and a reflective portion that extends from the shade toward the projection lens and reflects a portion of the light emitted from the light source toward the projection lens to irradiate a region overlapping the cutoff line with the light.
