Abstract

The image sensing apparatus comprises a first scan unit for scanning light from an OCT light source and light from an SLO light source in a first direction of a test object, and a second scan unit for scanning the light from the OCT light source in a second direction different from the first direction of the test object. The image sensing apparatus acquires tomographic images of the test object along the first direction when the first scan unit scans the light from the OCT light source, and acquires cross-over images of the test object corresponding to the tomographic images when the first scan unit scans the light from the SLO light source.
