The invention discloses a horizontal-electric-field-type display panel, a production method thereof and a display device. A first compensation membrane is arranged between an opposite substrate and anarray substrate, and when the display panel is subjected to uneven external force, phase delay of axial light ray is compensated for. In this way, under the condition that the opposite substrate andthe array substrate are subjected to uneven external force, the optical aeolotropy is generated, when the polarization state of the penetration light ray is changed, the first compensation membrane can compensate for phase delay of polarized light when the light passes through a liquid crystal layer, and after passing through the opposite substrate, the array substrate, the liquid crystal layer and the first compensation membrane, the light ray is restored to the original polarization state to a certain degree. In this way, under the dark state, most light ray cannot be emitted from the display panel, and accordingly the light leakage problem under the dark state is solved.
