A polarization-sensitive OCT apparatus includes an interference unit configured to split light emitted from a light source into measurement light and reference light and to generate interfered light by causing returning light of the measurement light that has irradiated a subject to interfere with the reference light that has traveled through a reference arm, a splitting unit configured to split the interfered light into different polarization components, a generation unit configured to detect the polarization components split by the splitting unit and to generate a signal, detection units configured to detect respective polarization states of the measurement light in a sample arm, the returning light of the measurement light that has passed through the interference unit, and the reference light that has passed through the interference unit, and polarization control units configured to control the respective polarization states on the basis of the respective polarization states that have been detected. |
