Objective: By studying the mental health and its influencing factors of myopia children in grade 5 and grade 6 in Chancheng District, Foshan City, this paper provided the basis for solving the psychological problems caused by myopia and the prevention and treatment of myopia. Methods: Three primary schools in Chancheng District,Foshan City were chosen. Two classes in grade 5 and grade 6 were selected to carry out myopia screening followed by evaluation of their mental health with children’s social anxiety scale, loneliness scale and children’s self-esteem scale. Results: The prevalence of myopia was 52.0% in Chancheng District, Foshan City. Females (57.5%) had a higher prevalence than males (47.4%). The prevalence in grade 6 (57.6%) was higher than that in grade 5 (46.3%).Children with myopia had obvious social anxiety, loneliness, and low self-esteem (scores of 5.53±4.04 vs 4.66±3.59,30.15±11.72 vs 27.29±10.40, 97.97±12.73 vs 100.87±12.21, respectively) than those with normal vision, whose difference was statistically significant (all P<0.05). Further analysis showed that social anxiety, loneliness, and self-esteem in children with primary myopia were more obvious than those with moderate myopia. Social factors such as gender and age had little effect on the mental health of myopic children. According to different correction methods, among myopic children, those who wore orthokeratology lenses had lower social anxiety (F=4.21, P=0.01), and those who wore spectacles were more likely to have lower self-esteem (F=5.67, P=0.02).Conclusion: The problem of myopia in primary school students, which is closely related to mental health, is of
general concern to the whole society. This requires the whole society to cooperate closely and take comprehensive measures. The choice of myopia correction methods affects the psychology of myopic children.
