An image is processed appropriately even in a case that the image includes multiple correction areas. In a case of performing the correction processing for each of a first correction area and a second correction area, a controller () determines whether to perform suppression processing of suppressing the correction processing for at least one of the first correction area or the second correction area depending on a distance between the inner area of the first correction area and the inner area of the second correction area.

There are provided an image processing device, image processing method, image processing program, image capture device, and image display device that prevent increase of computational complexity in image enlargement while mitigating degradation in image quality. An image input unit inputs a planar image signal containing signal values of pixels arranged on a plane and depth information including depth values corresponding to the pixels. An interpolation unit calculates a signal value for an interpolation coordinate between pixels on the plane by interpolating between the signal values of adjacent pixels which are present within a predetermined range from the interpolation coordinate. A weight decision unit determines a weighting factor for use in the interpolation based on the depth value of a reference pixel that is closest to the interpolation coordinate and the depth value of an adjacent pixel.
