A medical observation system, a control method, and a program are provided, which are capable of easily reducing the possibility that illumination light directly enters an eye by accident. A medical observation systemincludes: an imaging unitthat captures an object and generates an image signal; a light output unitthat outputs illumination light in a capturing direction of the imaging unit; a determining unitthat determines the usage state of the imaging unit; and an illumination controllerthat controls illumination light emitted by the light output unitbased on a determination result of the determining unit

Medical observation system, control method, and program in which illumination light is controlled in accordance with a usage state of an image sensor

Provided is a microscope apparatus including: a microscope section configured to image a subject's eye with an image sensor for performing magnified observation of the subject's eye; a holding section configured to hold the microscope section; a front lens insertion/removal unit configured to insert/remove a front lens for observing a posterior eye of the subject's eye onto an optical axis of the microscope section; and a control apparatus configured to execute an AF control that focuses the microscope section on an image-forming position of an image of the posterior eye by the front lens when the front lens is inserted onto the optical axis of the microscope section by the front lens insertion/removal unit.

Apparatus, method, program, and system

A medical observation apparatus includes: a camera configured to capture an observation object to output an imaging signal; a support configured to movably support the camera; and controller circuitry configured to control, when a normal observation mode with white light is switched to a special-light observation mode with special light, the support such that the camera is moved to a position so as to obtain a working distance that is set for the special-light observation mode and that is shorter than a working distance in the normal observation mode.

Medical observation apparatus

[Object] To provide a medical light source device and a medical observation system capable of switching a light source while suppressing an increase in size and complication of a device. [Solution] A medical light source device according to the present disclosure includes: a plurality of light sources; and a light source switching section that holds an end section of a light guide that transmits light, and is capable of disposing the end section on one of optical paths of light emitted by the plurality of light sources.
