This invention provides an optical lens assembly including, in order from an object side to an image side: a first lens element with negative refractive power having an image-side surface being concave in a paraxial region thereof; a second lens element having positive refractive power; a third lens element having an object-side surface being concave in a paraxial region thereof; and a fourth lens element having an object-side surface being convex in a paraxial region thereof and an image-side surface being concave in a paraxial region thereof, the image-side surface thereof having at least one convex shape in an off-axis region thereof; wherein the optical lens assembly has a total of four lens elements. With such configuration, the optical lens assembly is characterized by a reduced size and a wide field of view.
