[Purpose/significance] This paper proposes an evaluation method of new disciplines' level of development based on meta-analysis. [Method/process] Taking optical JCR journals as examples and selecting seven indicators of bibliometrics, this paper standardizes the data firstly, and evaluates data by adopting the principal component analysis, factor analysis, TOPSIS, dispersion coefficient, entropy, analytic hierarchy process (AHP). Then, it calculates the mean of evaluation results and that of top 20% of excellent journals and has bias testing for the means of various evaluation methods. Finally, it integrates all means by using meta-analysis. [Result/conclusion] The result shows that adopting meta-analysis to evaluate the development level of subjects is an effective method that can be used for comparing the development levels between different disciplines. The ratio of meta-analysis mean in all journals and excellent journals can be used to measure the gap of the same disciplines' development level.
