An optical communication device includes a substrate, a photoelectric element, a driver chip, a light waveguide unit, and a lens element. The substrate defines a receiving groove and a number of positioning holes around the receiving groove. The photoelectric element and the driver are electrically positioned on the substrate. The photoelectric element is configured for emitting/receiving optical signals, and the driver chip is configured for driving the photoelectric element to emit/receive optical signals. The light waveguide unit is configured for transmitting optical signals. The lens element includes a number of positioning portions corresponding to the positioning holes. The lens element is received in the receiving groove, and the positioning portions are received in the positioning holes.
