An exposure method has acquiring first OPE (Optical Proximity Effect) error corresponding to a first and second transcriptional pattern portions formed by transcribing a first and second pattern portions of a mask pattern onto a substrate with an exposure apparatus, computing a first correction amount of an exposure condition, the first correction amount reducing the first OPE error, computing a best focus difference between the first transcriptional pattern portion and the second transcriptional pattern portion transcribed with the exposure apparatus to which the first correction amount is imparted, computing a second correction amount of a projection optical system of the exposure apparatus, the second correction amount reducing the best focus difference, acquiring second OPE error corresponding to the first and second transcriptional pattern portions transcribed with the exposure apparatus to which the first and second correction amounts are imparted, and performing exposure processing with the exposure apparatus using a mask comprising the mask pattern, the first correction amount and the second correction amount being imparted to the exposure apparatus, when the second OPE error is included in a predetermined range.
