A light control device including a drive voltage output unit that outputs a drive voltage, a control unit that causes the drive voltage output unit to gradually increase or gradually decrease a magnitude of the drive voltage, a light control sheet including light control units connected in parallel to the drive voltage output unit and formed such that light transmittances of the light control units change according to magnitudes of voltages applied to the light control units, and a voltage dividing circuit which is connected to one of the light control units and divides the drive voltage common to each of the light control units such that the magnitude of the voltage applied to the light control unit connected to the voltage dividing circuit differs from the magnitude of the voltage applied to at least one of other light control units.
