Health care professionals have long recognized the value of interdisciplinary collaboration, although it is sometimes difficult to effect such collaborations. One unique possibility for interdisciplinary exchange involves the professions of clinical psychology and optometry. A number of vision conditions have psychological components and some psychological conditions may be complicated by vision difficulties; thus, there are a number of ways in which psychologists and optometrists could inform each others' practices. Better organized health care delivery is likely to result from interdisciplinary training and cooperation, as clients are likely to receive more efficient diagnosis, treatment, and management of health problems.
长期以来，医疗保健专业人员一直认识到跨学科合作的价值，尽管有时很难实现这种合作。跨学科交流的一种独特可能性涉及临床心理学和验光专业。许多视力问题都有心理因素，一些心理问题可能会因视力困难而变得复杂；因此，心理学家和验光师有多种方式可以相互借鉴各自的实践经验。跨学科培训与合作可能会带来更有序的医疗服务，因为患者可能会在健康问题的诊断、治疗和管理方面获得更高效的服务。
