Abstract: A scanning laser ophthalmoscope may include: a light source configured to emit laser light; a scanner configured to scan the laser light emitted from the light source two-dimensionally; a guide mirror configured to guide the laser light scanned by the scanner to a fundus of an eye of a subject; a guide mirror holder configured to hold the guide mirror in a predetermined positional relationship with the eye of the subject; a light receiver configured to receive reflected light of the laser light reflected on the fundus; and an image generator configured to generate a fundus image based on the reflected light received by the light receiver. The guide mirror may be disposed on a path connecting the scanner and the fundus of the eye of the subject, and disposed in front of the eye of the subject. The scanner may be disposed at the guide mirror holder.
