The spectral and baric dependences of the birefringence Δn_{i} of K_{2}ZnCl_{4} crystals were studied. It is shown that the dispersion Δn_{i}(λ) is normal and sharply increases on approaching the absorption edge. It is established that the uniaxial pressures do not change the character but only the values of the dispersions dΔn_{i}/dλ and temperature dependences of dΔn_{i}/dT.
