Abstract
The invention relates to a lighting device comprising: —at least one light source (); —a reflective member () comprising a reflective surface () and an edge () ('first edge') forming a light cut-off of light rays passing in a region adjacent to this first edge (); —a light-modifying member () adapted to modify lighting feature(s) of light rays and having an edge ('second edge'). The light-modifying member () extends from the reflective member () to this second edge () over a surface area defined to receive a part of the light rays passing in said region. The second edge is designed such that, among said part of light rays, the light-modifying member () modifies proportionally more light rays passing proximate the first edge than light rays passing less proximate the first edge (). The invention relates also to said light-modifying member () per se.
