A scanning optical system used for light beam scanning device is disclosed. The scanning optical system is disposed between a deflector for deflecting a light beam and a plane to be scanned. In the scanning optical system, a spherical lens having a positive power and a toric lens are arrnaged. The toric lens is positioned close to the spherical lens at the side thereof closer to the plane to be scanned. The toric lens has positive powers both in the main and sub scanning cross sectional planes. At least one of the faces of the toric lens is aspherical in the main scanning cross sectional plane.
