Strabismus and amblyopia are common eye diseases correlated with visual development in children.Strabismus, amblyopia and the associated treatments are closely related with the sociopsychological health of children. Current researches indicates that children with strabismus are likely to be alienated and discriminated against. In comparison with normal children, they are more likely to have sociopsychological problems. Even more mental disturbance might occur in serious cases. Timely strabismic treatments could exert a positive sociopsychological impact on children with strabismus. Although there is no unanimous opinion about the psychological effect of childhood amblyopia, most research indicates that treatments for amblyopia might exert a negative influence on sociopsychological health. Effective psychological intervention could promote compliance with amblyopic treatments, and minimize treatments' negative impact on childhood mental health. With more research, the sociopsychological children may face will gradually be illuminated, and the findings will provide a more sound theoretical basis for psychological intervention.
