Abstract
Since the lens () includes the alignment portions (), the lens () is positioned with high precision with respect to the second mold () during molding of the holder member (), and the holder member () and the lens () are positioned with each other with high precision. Further, since the positioning of the lens () with respect to the second mold () may be performed using the alignment portions () provided outside the second optical surface (), influence of the heat and pressure produced by the second mold () and the resin during molding of the holder member () on the second optical surface () of the lens () may be reduced. Therefore, occurrence of degradation, such as distortion, in the second optical surface () of the lens () during molding of the holder member () may be prevented.
