Abstract

A method of measuring a diameter of a core portion of an optical fiber preform including the core portion having a relatively high refractive index and a clad portion having a relatively low refractive index. The method includes applying parallel light to the optical fiber preform, and measuring the diameter of the core portion from an image captured by receiving the light having transmitted through the optical fiber preform.
