An image display apparatus that displays an image on a display includes: a temperature measuring unit that measures temperatures of a plurality of display regions of the display; a determining unit that determines whether or not a temperature difference between one of the plurality of display regions and the other display regions is larger than a threshold value on the basis of the temperatures measured by the temperature measuring unit; a driving condition setting unit that sets a driving condition for displaying the image on the display according to image data of the image; a driving condition changing unit that, in a case when the determining unit determines that the temperature difference is larger than the threshold value, changes the set driving condition to a driving condition different from that in a case in which the temperature difference is determined to be equal to or smaller than the threshold value; and a display driving unit that drives the display under the driving condition changed by the driving condition changing unit and displays the image on the display.
