Abstract: A light source unit includes a light distribution lens configured to guide light emitted from an LED disposed behind the light distribution lens, and a reflector arranged to surround the light distribution lens. Illuminance unevenness can be more suitably reduced, and effective light is not blocked even if a pinhole device is used for glare prevention, thereby avoiding illuminance unevenness and illuminance reductions. The light distribution lens has a columnar part that extends in the optical axis direction, and a conical recess is formed in the distal end of the columnar part. The conical recess is constituted by a reflective surface that fully reflects, in the circumferential direction, light incident on the light distribution lens. The reflector reflects light emitted from a cylindrical side surface of the columnar part such that the reflected light becomes converging light.
