1. A light module for a motor vehicle headlight, the light module comprising at least ten, light sources, at least one optical attachment and a projection optical unit, the projection optical unit imaging the light emitted by the at least ten light sources as a resulting light distribution of the light module, on a roadway in front of the motor vehicle, wherein at least two of the at least ten light sources are arranged next to one another and, at least two of the at least ten light sources are arranged in a matrix one above the other on a common support element, wherein the optical attachment comprises at least ten optical attachment elements, and each one of the at least ten light sources is assigned a corresponding one of the at least ten optical attachment elements of the optical attachment, and the optical attachment with the at least ten optical attachment elements is designed as an integral component; wherein the projection optical unit includes at least ten projection lenses, each assigned to a respective one of said at least ten light sources, the projection lenses being offset with respect to one another in relation to a main emission direction of the light module, wherein each one of said at least ten projection lenses has a different intersection length, and wherein said at least ten optical attachment elements of the optical attachment compensate for the different intersection lengths of a corresponding one of the at least ten projection lenses.
