Abstract
An object of the present invention is to provide a laminated glass which reduces light transmittance loss of a certain region thereof at a predetermined wavelength, particularly within a near-IR (750 to 1,000 nm) range and which facilitates provision of an optical instrument employing the near-IR light without partial substitution of an intermediate film. The invention provides a laminated glass for vehicle formed of two glass sheets stuck with a thermoplastic resin film, wherein the laminated glass has a first region and a second region; the second region is provided in a belt-like form along upper side of the laminated glass when the laminated glass is secured onto the vehicle; the first region has a visible light transmittance of 70% or higher; the second region has a visible light transmittance of 5% to 50%; the difference, in a light transmittance within a wavelength range of 750 to 1,000 nm, between the first region and the second region is 5% or less; and the second region has a light transmittance of 25% or higher, within a wavelength range of 750 to 1,000 nm.
