The present invention proposes an optical device according to claim 1. The optical device comprises a glazing with a top outer surface and a bottom outer surface extending between a first lateral end face and a second lateral end face. The glazing comprises at least one outer layer made of glass or of an optically clear polymer material. The glazing comprises a photoluminescent structure having one or more photoluminescent domains. The optical device comprises a light source for injecting excitation light into said glazing, said excitation light being suitable to excite the one or more photoluminescent domains to induce photoluminescence of the one or more photoluminescent domains. The light source is optically coupled to the glazing to inject light such that the light injected at the first lateral end face of the glazing so that the light is guided to propagate through the glazing from the first lateral end face to the second lateral end face, the glazing forming a waveguide between the top surface and the bottom surface by total internal reflection of the light at the top outer surface and the bottom outer surface, to induce photoluminescence of the one or more photoluminescent domains.
