Virtual image display device and optical unit

An optical unit comprising:

• a first display element configured to emit first imaging light that foul's a first virtual image;
• a second display element configured to emit second imaging light that foil is a second virtual image displayed at a position differing from the first virtual image in a depth direction;
• a combining optical member configured to combine the first imaging light from the first display element and the second imaging light from the second display element;
• a light-guiding optical system configured to guide light that passed through the combining optical member;
• and
• a correction optical system provided between the combining optical member and either one of the first display element and the second display element and configured to correct an aberration in accordance with a positional difference between the first display element and the second display element, wherein
• the first display element and the second display element are disposed such that optical axes of the first display element and the second display element are perpendicular to each other,
• the combining optical member is disposed at a position where the optical axes of the first display element and the second display element intersect each other, and
• the light-guide optical system is disposed on an optical path of the light that passed through the combining optical member.

A virtual image display device comprising:

• a first display element configured to emit a first imaging light that forms a first virtual image;
• a second display element configured to emit a second imaging light that forms a second virtual image;
• a combining optical member configured to combine the first imaging light from the first display element and the second imaging light from the second display element;
• a projection optical system configured to project light that passed through the combining optical member;
• and
• a correction optical system provided between the combining optical member and either one of the first display element and the second display element and configured to correct an aberration in accordance with a difference between a length of an optical path from the first display element to the projection optical system and a length of an optical path from the second display element to the projection optical system, wherein
• the length of the optical path from the first display element to the projection optical system differs from the length of the optical path from the second display element to the projection optical system,
• the first display element and the second display element are disposed such that optical axes of the first display element and the second display element are perpendicular to each other,
• the combining optical member is disposed at a position where the optical axes of the first display element and the second display element intersect each other, and
• the projection optical system is disposed on an optical path of the light that passed through the combining optical member.
