A pattern size evaluation apparatus comprising an illumination optical system for projecting parallel light rays of a predetermined wavelength on a monitoring area formed on an object, the monitoring area being formed at a position different from a device pattern formed on the object, a light intensity detection optical system for detecting diffracted light from the monitoring area, and a device pattern size evaluation section for evaluating a size of the device pattern based on an intensity of diffracted light from the monitoring area.
