Abstract
Provided is a liquid crystal display device capable of improving display characteristics in an edge region of a display surface of a liquid crystal display panel. In a liquid crystal display device, a frame includes a protruding portion that protrudes from an inner peripheral surface thereof to an inner periphery side between a liquid crystal display panel and a backlight unit. The protruding portion includes a first surface located on the inner periphery side, on which an optical sheet is arranged; and a second surface located on an outer periphery side and closer to the liquid crystal display panel than the first surface, on which a light blocking member is arranged. The light blocking member protrudes to the inner periphery side with respect to the second surface, and overlaps with the first surface in a thickness direction of the liquid crystal display panel.
