A microlens array includes N lenses ranging from a 1lens to an Nlens and a lens arrangement area. N is a positive integer. The lens arrangement area has the N lenses arranged in array. The lens arrangement area receives light emitted from a light source. An i(i being 1to N) lens satisfies a conditional expression below: 1. A microlens array comprising:{'sup': st', 'th, 'N lenses ranging from a 1lens to an Nlens, N being a positive integer; and'}a lens arrangement area having the N lenses arranged in array, the lens arrangement area to receive light emitted from a light source,{'sup': th', 'st', 'th, 'claim-text': {'br': None, '−20°≦θ≦20°'}, 'an i(i being 1to N) lens satisfying a conditional expression belowwhereθ denotes an angle formed by a main-axis orientation of double refraction and a reference orientation.2. The microlens array according to claim 1 , further comprising a gate area adjacent to the lens arrangement area in a planar view claim 1 ,wherein the gate area increases in width in a direction that approaches the lens arrangement area.3. The microlens array according to claim 2 ,wherein the gate area has a maximum width that is smaller than or equal to a width of an edge on a side of the lens arrangement area which is adjacent to the gate area in the planar view.4. The microlens array according to claim 2 ,wherein the lens arrangement area has a rectangular shape having, on a side adjacent to the gate area, an edge shorter than another edge in the planar view.5. The microlens array according to claim 1 ,wherein the lens arrangement area is curved along at least one direction.6. The microlens array according to claim 2 ,wherein the planar view is viewed from a normal direction that passes through a center of the lens arrangement area.7. An apparatus comprising:a light source to emit the light;an image forming element to form an image with the light emitted from the light source; and{'claim-ref': {'@idref': 'CLM-00001', 'claim 1'}, 'the microlens array ...
