Abstract
A plastic lens includes an optically functioning section, a flange section disposed at an outer periphery thereof, a reference surface formed at an outer peripheral portion of the flange section and adapted to become a reference for attachment, and a tapered surface formed on at least a part of the outer peripheral portion of the flange section which is located closer to the optically functioning section side than is the reference surface so as to taper down its diameter along the optical axis of the optically functioning section. The tapered surface forms a surface at which a gate for resin injection is located upon manufacture.
