An exterior aircraft light with integrated light output monitoring includes a light source support, at least one light source, arranged on an outward facing side of the light source support, an aperture in the light source support, a light collection surface, arranged to direct an output monitoring light portion of the light, emitted by the at least one light source, through the aperture in a predefined angular range with respect to the light source support. The light also includes a light detector, arranged on a back side of the light source support, and a total internal reflection optical element, arranged to direct the output monitoring light portion, having travelled through the aperture in the predefined angular range with respect to the light source support, to the light detector via total internal reflection.
