ABSTRACT:
A handy blood glucose measurement apparatus irradiates the retina of the eye of the subject with light emitted from light-emitting elements having two different wavelengths, with the light of one wavelength serving as reference light and the light of the other wavelength serving as measurement light. The intensity of the reference light and of the measurement light is obtained and the blood glucose value of the subject is found based upon the difference between these two reflected-light intensities. By focusing his or her eye on a symbol or figure displayed on a display panel in the apparatus, the subject is capable of focusing the light emitted by the light-emitting elements on the retina of the eye in reliable fashion.
