At present, there are many experimental and theoretical results for $J/\psi\rightarrow\eta_{ c}+\gamma$ process, while the results are inconsistent based on different methods and considerations. In this paper, the light cone sum rules method is used in studying the radiative decay $J/\psi\rightarrow\eta_{ c}+\gamma$. We give the transition form factor of this process based on the leading twist distribution amplitude of $\eta_{ c}$ meson, with this form factor further obtain the decay width. Our result is consistent with those of other sum rules. A comparison of our result with others' about the decay width is also presented.
