An optical light splitter includes or is connected to at least two input waveguides (4; 6, 7; 18, 19; 32,33) for light. The light splitter (1, 2, 30, 40), on the side opposite to the input waveguide or input waveguides (4; 6, 7; 18, 19; 32, 33; 41, 42) transitions into at most one output waveguide (8, 10, 20, 34) in the direction of propagation of the incoming light. A surface (14, 25, 31, 45) is present set at an angle to the direction of propagation of the light in that part of the light splitter that is opposite to the input waveguide or input waveguides, the surface is present where the light splitter has an image from incoming light, and internal corners are not present in the part.
