In a light detecting device for detecting light beams passing through a light-gathering optical system, an aberration detector of the present invention includes photodetectors for forming a light-gathering spot of a first light beam passing near an optical axis, and photodetectors for forming a light-gathering spot of a second light beam passing outside the first light beam. In accordance with detection signals of the detectors, a spherical aberration of the light-gathering optical system can be detected. With this arrangement, a spherical aberration appearing on the light-gathering optical system is precisely detected and corrected in an appropriate manner, so that it is possible to suitably record and reproduce information in a magneto-optical disk. |
