A capacitive touch screen includes an indium tin oxide layer and a transparent protection layer on top of the indium tin oxide layer, wherein buttons and lines are etched on the indium tin oxide layer, and each of the buttons is connected to an electronic control circuit through at least one of the lines. A method for manufacturing a capacitive touch screen comprises: (A1) providing a first indium tin oxide layer; (A2) etching buttons and lines on the first indium tin oxide layer through photolithography process. The buttons and lines are etched directly on the indium tin oxide layer, and the touch screen is integrated with the LCD, which does not increase any thickness and transmits the information in the line by the simplest way. The capacitive touch screen of the invention has high efficiency, exact orientation, convenient installation, low cost, good appearance, etc.
