Optical unit, display device, rear view device and motor vehicle including the same

The invention relates to an optical unit (2) for a display device of a motor vehicle with at least one light-conducting body, which comprises at least one coupling-in section (8), through which light emitted by at least one light source (10) can be coupled into the light-conducting body (4), and at least one coupling-out section (12), through which light can be coupled out of the light-conducting body (4), and with at least one optical means (16), which can be fixed to the light-conducting body (4) at least section-wise covering the at least one coupling-out section (12) of the light-conducting body in an area-covering manner or is fixed, and which comprises at least one optical element (18), through which a light path of at least the light passing through the optical element (18) can be deflected and/or divided into light bundles, in particular can be scattered. It is characterized in that the optical means (16) comprises a plurality of optical elements (18), which correspond to or differ in their refraction and/or reflection behavior at the same or deviating distance from the coupling-in section (8) of the light-conducting body.
