Abstract

An image projection device includes: one light source unit emitting an image light beam, which forms an image, of visible light and a checking light beam of visible light; an optical system projecting the image light beam emitted from emitted from the one light source unit onto a first surface region of an eye of a user to project the image light beam onto a retina of the user, and projecting the checking light beam emitted from the one light source unit onto a second surface region, which is distant from the first surface region, of the eye of the user; a light detector detecting a reflected light that is the checking light beam reflected by the eye of the user; and a controller controlling at least one of the one light source unit and the optical stem based on a detection result of the reflected light by the light detector.
