Abstract
Distribution information of examination results of eye fundus is displayed. An imaging part carries out movie imaging of fundus. A tomographic image forming part comprises an optical system that generates and detects interference light by superposing signal light from fundus on reference light and a scanner that scans fundus with signal light, and forms tomographic image of fundus based on detection results of interference light acquired by the scanning. A setting part sets scan-target location of signal light on distribution information. A specifying part specifies image region in fundus image obtained by the movie imaging that corresponds to the scan-target location. A controller controls the scanner based on the specified image region to carry out scanning of signal light. The tomographic image forming part forms tomographic image from the detection results of interference light acquired by the scanning of signal light based on the control.
