The eye E to be inspected is picked up by the television camera 24 by the optical system 23 and displayed on the television monitor 25. The eye image E ′ to be inspected may be a fundus image or a slit projection image in addition to the anterior segment image. When a measurement mode switch (not shown) is pressed during measurement, the eye image E ′ is fixed on the television monitor 25 and becomes a still image, and cursor symbols M and N are simultaneously displayed. The cursor symbols M and N are moved to a predetermined position by moving the operating rod 27 to perform measurement. In this case, even if the operating rod 27 is moved, the measuring unit 22 is actually moved as in the first embodiment. No need. Since the amount of movement is determined by the movement of the operating rod 27, the amount of movement of the cursor symbols M and N is determined by this, and the size of the eye image E ′ to be inspected on the still screen and the imaging magnification of the optical system 23 are used. Thus, the size of the predetermined portion of the eye E to be inspected can be measured.
