Provided is an objective lens including a diffraction portion provided on a laser beam incident plane or output plane. The diffraction portion includes first second, and third diffraction regions, wherein first laser beams corresponding to a first optical disc having a first transmissive layer are condensed on a data recording portion of the first optical disc, second laser beams corresponding to a second optical disc having a second transmissive layer thicker than the first transmissive layer are condensed on a data recording portion of the second optical disc, and third laser beams corresponding to a third optical disc having a third transmissive layer thicker than the second transmissive layer are condensed on a data recording portion of the third optical disc. An evaluation parameter calculated on the basis of an in-plane efficiency distribution function has a value corresponding to a symbol error rate that is less than a predetermined value. |
