An optical apparatus can eliminate offset resulting from assembling errors and also can correct offset even in the photodetector of any optical system. An optical disk apparatus for reading information from tracks traces the track with the condensed spot of light beam depending on the tracking error signal obtained from the optical system for tracking error detection. The tracking error detecting optical system includes an optical apparatus having a photodetector for outputting, as the tracking error signal, a differential value of outputs of a plurality of light receiving sections for receiving the light beam condensed by the condenser lens. Also, an optical element is provided for relatively increasing and/or decreasing the amount of receiving light of a light receiving section depending on displacement of the optical axis of the light beam, in order to balance the light received by the light receiving sections and compensate for affect.
