Abstract
An OCT apparatus includes an OCT optical system guiding measurement light to a region including a central portion and a peripheral portion of a fundus, and an image processor processing a spectral interference signal output from the OCT optical system to acquire OCT data of an examinee's eye. The OCT optical system includes a first reference optical path having a path length for obtaining OCT data including the central portion and a second reference optical path having a path length for obtaining OCT data including the peripheral portion. The image processor obtains OCT data including the central portion based on an interference signal between measurement light guided to the central portion and reference light from the first reference optical path, and obtains OCT data including the peripheral portion based on an interference signal between measurement light guided to the peripheral portion and reference light from the second reference optical path.
