Abstract
A projection optical system for projecting an image of an image display element, includes a lens, a stop, and a holder configured to hold the lens and the stop and disposed at an image-display-element side of the stop. In addition, a light blocking member is disposed at the image-display-element side of the stop and fixed within the holder. At least a part of the light blocking member extends to a position nearer to an optical axis of the lens than the holder, and a face of the light-blocking member nearer to the image-display-element side is inclined in a section including an optical axis of the lens so that a point nearer to the optical axis comes closer to the image display element.
