PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a cornea imaging apparatus capable of acquiring a corneal endothelium image in an optimal position (X, Y, and Z coordinates) by a simple method without performing special control.SOLUTION: In a cornea imaging apparatus equipped with drive means for moving an optical system in an approaching direction or in a separation direction with respect to an eye to be examined so as to perform the focusing, corneal endothelium images are acquired successively in a position where the corneal endothelium images can be acquired, and a deviation amount of each of an X-coordinate and a Y-coordinate is calculated based on the result of analysis of the acquired corneal endothelium images so as to perform an X-Y alignment.COPYRIGHT: (C)2016,JPO&INPIT【課題】特別な制御を行うことなく、簡易な方法により最適な位置(X、Y、Z座標)における角膜内皮像を取得可能な角膜撮影装置を提供すること。【解決手段】被検眼に対して接近乃至は離隔方向に移動させて合焦せしめる駆動手段を備えた角膜撮影装置において、角膜内皮像が取得可能な位置で、連続して角膜内皮像を取得し、取得した角膜内皮像を解析した解析結果に基づいてX、Y座標の各々のずれ量を算出して、XYアライメントを行うようにした。【選択図】図4
