An apparatus and method for measuring by the Schlieren technique light beam deviations generated by a sample (EV) includes a source (S) of light beam for illuminating the sample (EV) therewith so as to have a transmitted beam. An imaging means is provided (L 2 , L 3 ) for forming an image of the sample from the transmitted beam. A filtering means acts as a Schlieren filter (SF) for obtaining "Schlieren fringes" from the image. The Schlieren filter (SF) comprises a periodic structure (SFP) of a defined period. A detecting means (CCD) is provided for detecting the Schlieren fringes under operating conditions. The apparatus can also include means to shift the filtering means with a shift phi by a fraction of the period of the periodic structure thereby shifting the Schlieren fringes, means to acquire a set of at least three successive phase-shifted images; means for reconstructing a mean image of the sample from said collected phase-shifted images using a phase-shifting algorithm used in interferometry, and processing means to calculate by said phase-shifting analysis the optical characteristics, angle and phase of the transmitted beam from said reconstructed image so as to determine the beam deviation angle generated by the sample.
