1. A method for optical imaging of retinal function comprising:

  • an illuminating observing step of illuminating the retinal region of the rear surface of an eyeball including the macular area and the optic disk with an invisible light and observing the retinal region;

    a stimulating step of illuminating the retinal region with a visible flash light to stimulate a retinal function including an optic disk'"'"'s function;

    an imaging step of capturing images A, B before and after the stimulation of the retinal region illuminated with the invisible light; and

    a calculating step of detecting the change of the retinal function of the retinal region from the images A, B before and after the stimulation, wherein, in the calculating step, the images A, B before and after the stimulation are registered in advance and the change of the retinal function is displayed with an image from the registered images.
