Summary:PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a laser microscope and a confocal laser scanning microscope suppressing the damage of a sample by attenuating the intensity of a deep UV laser beam to be irradiated to the sample. SOLUTION: A laser microscope provided with a laser beam transmitter 1 for emitting a deep UV laser beam 8 and a microscope body 4 having an extinction filter switching unit 11 for attenuating the intensity of the beam 8 is further provided with a memory 7a for storing a map concerning the degree of the damage of a sample 10 with respect to the intensity of the light 8. Then, when a sample damage attenuating value is inputted from outside, the unit 11 is switched on the basis of the map to adjust the intensity of the laser beam.
