Stabilize phases by eliminating, without adding any expensive, complex hardware, the jitter between the wavelength scanning of a light source of SS-OCT and the timing of collecting the scan data with the light detector as spectral interference signals. A computer 16, which generates tomographic images based on the spectral interference signals detected by a light detector 15 from overlaid reference light emitted by a swept-source type light source 2 of the SS-OCT, split, and then reflected by a fixed reference mirror 8 on one hand and object light reflected by an object to be measured 6 on the other, is caused to function to apply rough correction using a first correction means and then apply detailed correction using a second correction means, to stabilize the phases of the SS-OCT.
