Abstract: The invention relates to a full-field OCT method for generating an imaging of an ocular fundus (31), in which short-coherent light (22) is emitted and split into an object beam path (25) and a reference beam path (24). The object beam path (25) is directed onto the ocular fundus (33). The reference beam path (24) and a portion of the object beam path (25) reflected by the ocular fundus (31) are directed onto an image sensor (32), such that an interference between the reference beam path (24) and the object beam path (25) occurs on the image sensor (32), wherein the reference beam path (24) impinges on the image sensor (32) at an angle deviating from the object beam path (25). Before impinging on the image sensor (32), the reference beam path (24) impinges on an optical correction element (27) in order to reduce a chromatic aberration within the reference beam path (24). Intensity information and phase information is determined from a capturing of the image sensor.
