Patent ID: 8328355

Claim:
An ophthalmic device comprising: a photographing optical system configured to photograph an imaging object part of an eye to be examined or an eye fundus; an illumination optical system configured to illuminate the eye to be examined; a split target projection optical system configured to project an optical image target or a split target so as to focus the photographing optical system on the imaging object part of the eye to be examined; an alignment target projection optical system configured to project the optical image target or an alignment target so as to align the photographing optical system with respect to the eye to be examined; an observation optical system configured to display optical images of the imaging object part of the eye to be examined, the split target and the alignment target on a monitor; and a pseudo target display processing unit configured to take an observation video signal output by the observation optical system in, detect at least one of positions of the split target and the alignment target in the observation video signal, and display a pseudo target on the monitor based upon the detected position, a size of the pseudo target being the same as a size of the split target or larger than the size of the split target, such that when displayed on the monitor, the pseudo target overlaps the split target.
