Pinhole Eyeglasses: A Natural Strain-free Alternative to Vision Correction

By: Mike Lamb

Not many people realize that there's an exciting eyeglass alternative to prescription glasses normally worn for corrective solutions to conditions known as myopia (nearsighted), hyperopia (farsighted), and refractive eye disorders. These eyeglasses are called "pinhole eyeglasses" and are unique in that they're not really glasses, but instead are lenses made of plastic or metal with a series of small, precise inlaid perforated holes resembling a finely honeycombed screen. Apparently, this ingenious concept existed long before glass lenses were invented among native tribes inhabiting the Arctic, formally known as Eskimos.
When wearing this one-of-a-kind pair of eyeglasses, your eyes view the world through these tiny pinholes with no obstruction of vision; the pinholes serve to narrow the path of light emitted from objects, so that when the outer light rays from an object are deflected, your eye's cornea can guide the light and image directly to your retina's center, as does a camera when the camera's aperture is narrowed, thus enhancing depth of field.
Unlike traditional orthodox lenses where perceptual experience is enhanced at defined distances, pinhole glasses ensure clear vision at any distance, providing an infinite depth of focus. In other words, you aren't hampered with that nagging requirement of having to remove your reading glasses to see objects further away. You don't have to look over your glasses to see the face of the person you're talking to. This technique is a natural strain-free alternative approach to vision correction which naturally conditions and relaxes your eye muscles. Wearing pinhole glasses benefits all aspects of the visual experience including color, clarity, and light.
Since anyone can wear pinhole glasses without consulting an optician, the popularity of these radically distinctive eyeglasses is gaining critical mass. There are several decorative colors and styles to choose from and since there are no actual lenses, smears and scratches are just distant memories. And considering recent research suggesting that the use of prescription glasses may actually increase the defect in vision prescription glasses are meant to correct, that makes for a compelling reason to give careful consideration to wearing pinhole glasses as a first choice.
