Abstract

To provide an optical observation device in which generation of a shadow caused by unevenness of a sample is suppressed in observation of the sample including a cell using ultraviolet light, and an imaging method using the optical observation device.SOLUTION: The optical observation apparatus 100 of the present disclosure includes the arrangement unit 11 on which the sample S including cells can be arranged, the light source 12 capable of projecting the ultraviolet light UV to the sample S from at least two directions, the imaging optical system that forms the observation light emitted from the sample S by the ultraviolet light UV as the observation image, and the imaging unit that images the formed observation image by the imaging element.SELECTED DRAWING: Figure 1
