A light emitting device adapted for a backlight module of a liquid crystal display is disclosed. The light emitting device comprises a plurality of light emitting units and a light guiding plate having a central portion and at least one side portion. Each of the light emitting units has a luminous surface and the light guiding plate has a plurality of light incident structures. Each of the light incident structures has a light incident surface opposite to the corresponding luminous surface, and a reflective surface forming an included angle with the light incident surface. Light emitted from each of the light emitting units passes through the light incident surface, is totally reflected by the reflective surface and enters into the central portion of the light guiding plate. The mixed reflective light run into the central portion of the light guiding plate and deflects outward to a user's side.
