A fundus imaging apparatus acquires a fundus image based on a signal from a light receiving element that receives fundus reflection light of illumination light with which a fundus of a subject eye is irradiated through an objective lens. The fundus imaging apparatus includes an information acquisition unit that acquires information relating to a refractive power of a subject eye, and a process that executes an artifact suppressing process for suppressing occurrence of an artifact due to reflection of the illumination light at the objective lens. The processor switches an imaging mode based on the refractive power between an invalid mode in which the artifact suppressing process is not executed and a valid mode in which the artifact suppressing process is executed.
