title: [Psychological impact of eyeglasses].
abstract: Children with a strabismus feel often derided. Wearing spectacles is considered by them as an additional burden. The resulting emotional problems were apparent in a study of their drawings and accompanying interviews 12 years ago. Although interviews showed a year ago that the spectacles were better accepted, they still do not seem to be "interiorised". Therefore parents should emphasize the positive aspect of wearing spectacles, which should be considered as an ornament.
