The invention measures a thickness variation at a high accuracy around a wide range of a thin plate by a comparatively large spot diameter between 0.5 mm and 2 mm. A polarization beam splitter separating a laser beam emitted from a laser generator and transmitting through an isolator into a measurement light and a reference light is provided. A quarter wavelength plate is provided between the polarization beam splitter and a measurement surface, and between the polarization beam splitter and a reference surface. A focusing and reflecting means for focusing and reflecting the measurement light reflected by the measurement surface and reflected by the polarization beam splitter, and the reference light reflecting by the reference surface and transmitting through the polarization beam splitter is provided. A half mirror reflecting the measurement light and the reference light which return from the polarization beam splitter is provided. A light receiving portion receiving the measurement light and the reference light which are reflected by the half mirror so as to interfere, converting an interference light intensity change into an electric signal, and counting the electric signal so as to measure a flatness of the measurement surface is provided.
