A laser driving apparatus for a light source of an optical head apparatus includes a laser, a laser driving circuit, and a radio frequency current generation circuit for generating a radio frequency current to be superimposed on the drive current. The laser driving apparatus further includes a current monitor circuit, an optical detector for detecting an optical output of the laser; a selection circuit for selecting either of non-superimposing or superimposing the radio frequency current on the drive current, an APC circuit for controlling the optical output of the laser at a constant level, and a control circuit. The control circuit controls the amplitude of the radio frequency current on the basis of current values of the drive current on non-superimposing and superimposing or detection values of the optical output of the laser on non-superimposing and superimposing.
