An illumination apparatus is provided that can achieve light distribution towards the front, and light illumination in a direction other than the front direction, without using a light source other than the light source for frontward illumination. The illumination apparatus includes a light emitting diode (8) located at the front side of the illumination apparatus, corresponding to one end, a side transmission unit (3) having a surface exposed at a gap in the casing, located rearward of the light emitting diode to transmit light from the side, and a light path modification unit (15, 15a), located rearward of the light emitting diode to modify the direction of light output from the light emitting diode towards the side transmission unit. <IMAGE> |
