A light guide substrate includes first and second triangular prisms juxtaposed to each other on a light exit face thereof. Each of the first and second triangular prisms has a rounded vertex. The number of the first triangular prisms is smaller than the number of the second triangular prisms. Each first triangular prism has a first height from the light exit face. Each second triangular prisms has a second height from the light exit face. The second height is between 20 and 90 percent of the first height. A backlight module includes the aforesaid light guide substrate, a reverse prism sheet disposed on the light guide substrate, and a light emitting unit to emit light rays into the light substrate.
