Abstract
An ophthalmic apparatus includes an illumination optical system, an imaging optical system, and a controller. The illumination optical system is configured to generate illumination light using light from a light source, and to illuminate a changeable illumination region on a predetermined site of a subject's eye with the illumination light having a light intensity corresponding to a size of the illumination region. The imaging optical system is configured to guide returning light of the illumination light from the subject's eye to a light receiving surface of an image sensor. The controller is configured to control the image sensor to set an opening range so as to overlap an illumination range of the returning light on the light receiving surface corresponding to the illumination region and to capture a light receiving result obtained by a light receiving element in the set opening range.
