The wedge-shaped light incident part includes a light incident surface perpendicular to the bottom surface and a sloped surface sloping relative to the light incident surface and connects to the flat panel. The sloped surface defines a plurality of V-shaped grooves for preventing light leak. The flat panel includes a light emitting surface opposite to the bottom surface. The plurality of light sources is positioned adjacent to the light incident surface.
