Abstract
A pulse light source section outputs a plurality of pulse light according to the exposure timing of a retina imaging device. A retina illumination system illuminates the retina of an eye under measurement with the pulse light. A wavefront compensation system illuminates the eye and measures aberrations from a light reflected from the eye. The wavefront compensation system uses a wavefront compensation device and other components to compensate to cancel out measured aberrations. A retina imaging device receives a light which was reflected from the retina and of which the aberrations have been compensated for. A retina observation system forms an image of the retina on the retina imaging device with a light which was reflected and compensated. With the plurality of pulse light output from the pulse light source section, a plurality of consecutive retina images are obtained.
