    Abstract: An optical device comprises a printed circuit board (PCB) comprising an image capture electronic circuit, a lens holder and a heating element. The lens holder extends along the optical axis of the optical device from its top to bottom extremities and comprises a top optical element arranged on its top extremity. The lens holder is mounted on the PCB so as to align, along the optical axis, the image capture electronic circuit and the top optical element. The heating element comprises a heating part arranged in contact with the top optical element and first and second electrical conductive wires. Each wire extends from the heating part to their bottom extremity which is directly attached in electrical contact with the PCB. The optical device also comprises first and second wire insertion guide elements. The first and second wires are respectively arranged in the first and second guide elements.
