OPHTHALMIC IMAGING APPARATUS, CONTROL METHOD OF OPHTHALMIC IMAGING APPARATUS AND STORAGE MEDIUM

摘要

An apparatus comprises: a projection unit arranged in an illumination optical system for projecting illumination light onto a fundus of an eye and to project a focus index onto the eye; a focus lens arranged in a light-receiving optical system for guiding reflected light from the fundus to an image sensor and to focus the image sensor on the fundus; a first unit to detect an approximate focus position using the focus index in a first mode; a second unit to detect a focus position in a second mode by evaluating a luminance-contrast of a fundus image formed on the image sensor based on the approximate focus position; and a control unit to control positions of the focus lens and the projection unit in association with each other in the first mode, and control them independently in the second mode.

1. An ophthalmic imaging apparatus comprising:
a focus index projection unit arranged in an illumination optical system for projecting illumination light onto a fundus of an eye to be examined and configured to project a focus index onto the eye to be examined; a focus lens arranged in a light receiving optical system for guiding reflected light from the fundus to an image sensor and configured to focus the image sensor on the fundus; a first focus detection unit configured to detect an approximate focus position using the focus index in a first control mode; a second focus detection unit configured to detect a focus position in a second control mode by evaluating a luminance contrast of a fundus image formed on the image sensor based on the approximate focus position; and a control unit configured to control a position of said focus lens and a position of said focus index projection unit in association with each other in the first control mode, and control the position of said focus lens and the position of said focus index projection unit independently in the second control mode.
