Abstract
The present invention relates to a projection device in which a projection lens has undergone arrangements at its exit surface, and more particularly side areas of this exit surface. The arrangements are intended to divert certain light rays emitted by a light source of the light in order to illuminate overhead lights without interfering with the homogeneity of the light beam of said light. The arrangements made may consist of protuberances in the form of serrations.
