A discharge lamp control device includes: a discharge lamp driver section which drives a lamp; and a discharge lamp drive control section which performs constant current control so that a discharge lamp current that flows between electrodes of the lamp becomes constant when a discharge lamp voltage applied between the electrodes of the lamp is lower than a first voltage after the lamp has been lighted. The discharge lamp drive control section performs constant power control so that an amount of power supplied to the lamp becomes constant when the lamp voltage is equal to or higher Man the first voltage and is equal to or lower than a predetermined voltage which is higher than the first voltage after the discharge lamp has been lighted; and the discharge lamp drive control section reduces the amount of power supplied to the lamp according to an increase in the discharge lamp voltage when the discharge lamp voltage is higher than the predetermined voltage after the lamp has been lighted.
