L'invention concerne une unité de lentille et un dispositif d'imagerie qui assurent un ensemble de haute précision et une productivité améliorée, suppriment la lumière inutile, et permettent de supprimer l'apparition de dédoublement ou d'évasement. La lumière inutile incidente sur une surface fonctionnelle (L4f3) est absorbée ou diffusée, ce qui supprime l'incidence de ladite lumière sur une unité de conversion de lumière (11a) et permet d'éviter le dédoublement et l'évasement, en conséquence de la surface fonctionnelle (L4f3) étant ménagée à l'intérieur, dans une direction orthogonale à l'axe optique une surface en contact avec une quatrième plaque de blocage de lumière (AP4) dans une surface côté image (L4f1) dans une section de rebord (L4f) d'une quatrième lentille (L4), ladite surface fonctionnelle (L4f3) présentant un revêtement d'encre noire ou étant une surface rugueuse. De plus, la lumière inutile émise de l'extérieur du diamètre effectif d'une troisième lentille (L3) est absorbée, ce qui supprime l'incidence de ladite lumière sur une unité de conversion de lumière (11a) et permet d'éviter le dédoublement et l'évasement, en conséquence d'une troisième plaque de blocage de lumière (AP3) ménagée entre la troisième lentille (L3) et la quatrième lentille (L4).
