    Abstract: An ophthalmic apparatus includes an illumination optical system, an optical scanner, an imaging optical system, a controller, and an image forming unit. The illumination optical system is configured to generate slit-shaped illumination light. The optical scanner is configured to deflect the illumination light to guide the illumination light to a fundus of a subject's eye. The imaging optical system is configured to guide returning light of the illumination light from the fundus to an image sensor. The controller is configured to control the optical scanner. The image forming unit is configured to form an image of the fundus based on a light receiving result captured in an imaging target region on a light receiving surface of the image sensor. The image sensor is configured to capture the light receiving result in an opening region on the light receiving surface using a rolling shutter method, the opening region corresponding to an illumination region of the illumination light on the fundus, the illumination region being moved in a predetermined scan direction by the optical scanner. The controller is configured to control the optical scanner so that irradiation times of the returning light at a plurality of light receiving elements in the imaging target region are substantially equal.

    Abstract: An ophthalmic apparatus includes an illumination optical system including a slit in which a slit-shaped aperture is formed and an iris aperture in which two apertures are formed at positions away from an optical axis position, the iris aperture being arranged at a position substantially conjugate optically to an iris of a subject's eye between a light source and the slit, and configured to generate slit-shaped illumination light using light from the light source and to guide the illumination light to a fundus of the subject's eye; and an imaging optical system including an imaging aperture in which an aperture is formed, and configured to guide returning light of the illumination light to an image sensor, the returning light being guided from the fundus by pupil division and passing through the aperture formed in the imaging aperture. A width of the slit-shaped aperture, a distance between the two apertures, and a size of the aperture in the imaging aperture are set so that an overlap region of a light flux region of the illumination light and a light flux region of the returning light is located on a side of the fundus from a posterior surface of lens of the subject's eye within the eye of the subject eye.
