An optical measuring device includes a measuring unit (an optical head and a control unit) that irradiates a detection portion of an immunochromatographic test piece with measurement light and measures light obtained from the detection portion due to the irradiation with the measurement light, and a determination unit that performs a determination regarding the immunochromatographic test piece on the basis of a determination according to a comparison of a measurement value obtained by the measuring unit with a preset threshold value, the measuring unit performs the measurement of the light obtained from the detection portion a plurality of times, and the determination unit performs a determination regarding the immunochromatographic test piece when the determination unit determines that a measurement value in an nth measurement is equal to or greater than the threshold value and also determines that a measurement value in an (n+1)th measurement is equal to or greater than the threshold value.
