Diffuser having asymmetric light output pattern and method of manufacturing same

The present invention relates to a diffuser and a method of manufacturing the same, and more particularly, to a diffuser and a method of manufacturing the same, in which light emitted through the diffuser forms an asymmetric light output pattern. A diffuser according to an exemplary embodiment is a diffuser that forms an asymmetric light output pattern by diffusing laser beams received from a laser source, the diffuser including: a base; and a micro lens array disposed on the base, in which the micro lens array has a plurality of micro lenses each comprising a lower surface and a curved surface disposed on the lower surface, and the lower surface has horizontal and vertical lengths different from each other.
