A transmitted wavefront measuring method comprises the steps of emitting light 101 from a light source 100 onto an object to be measured 120 to receive interfering light transmitted through the object and a diffraction grating 130 on a light receiving portion 140 disposed at a predetermined distance from the diffraction grating to measure an intensity distribution of the interfering light T10, performing a Fourier transform of the intensity distribution to calculate a frequency distribution T20, and obtaining a transmitted wavefront of the object based on a primary frequency spectrum in the frequency distribution T30 to T90. The step of obtaining the transmitted wavefront comprises the steps of performing an inverse Fourier transform of the primary frequency spectrum with reference to a grating frequency of the diffraction grating to calculate a complex amplitude of the interfering light T60, and obtaining the transmitted wavefront based on the complex amplitude T90.
