Display device

Abstract

A direct-viewing type display device (100) according to the present invention includes a display panel (10) including a display region (10A) which has a plurality of pixel lines (18) extending in a first direction and a frame region (10F), the display region and the frame region having a border extending in the first direction therebetween; and a light-transmitting cover (20). The plurality of pixel lines include a first pixel line (18a) adjoining the border, a second pixel line (18b), and a third pixel line (18c). The first pixel line, the second pixel line and the third pixel line are of different colors from each other. The light-transmitting cover includes a lens portion (22) located so as to stride over the border, the lens portion refracting a part of light, going out from the display region, toward the frame region. A light diffusion structure (60) is provided between the lens portion and a part of the display panel including the first pixel line, the second pixel line and the third pixel line. The present invention provides a display device for visually obscuring the frame region of the display panel and suppressing the sense of unnaturalness given to the viewer.
