Abstract

An optical lens assembly includes at least two lens elements and at least one light blocking sheet. Each of the lens elements includes a connecting structure for aligning the two lens elements. Each of the connecting structures includes a connecting surface and a circular conical surface, and a receiving space is formed between the two lens elements. A vertical distance between the receiving space and an optical axis is shorter than a vertical distance between each circular conical surface and the optical axis. The light blocking sheet is received in the receiving space and has a polygonal opening, and an outside diameter of the light blocking sheet is smaller than or equal to a minimum diameter of each circular conical surface.
