Pinhole Glasses - The Truth

By: Mike Lamb

If you have not yet heard of pinhole glasses, you will probably be glad that today you have. These glasses reportedly work well for many, many people and are a much more-affordable option than many costly prescription eyeglasses.
The glasses are made of precision-manufactured perforated plastic lenses that fit into typical metal or plastic eyeglass frames we all wear today. They work by allowing only direct and coherent light rays to pass through to the eye, providing for better vision.
Healthy eyes focus light rays into a single point on the retina. Unhealthier eyes focus rays in front of or behind the retina causing a blurry circle directly on the retina. The pinholes in pinhole eyeglasses basically lessen the beam of light, creating a more narrow beam of light that provides greater depth of field and effectively better vision; clarity improves, objects appear brighter, and distance is not an issue (short or long).
The glasses are also lightweight making them comfortable for hours while reading your favorite magazine or novel, or watching TV shows; they often weigh less than strong-prescription glasses which require thicker, heavier lenses and frames. Today's pinhole glasses are also fashionable and often last longer than other lenses that scratch and blemish easily.
If you had heard of them in the past, you should realize that pinhole eyeglasses have come along way as many doctors and consumers have both come to more widely accept them -- partly because the designs have greatly improved and partly because their usefulness is more recognized today than ever before.
Ophthalmologists often use pinhole equipment in their eye exams and evidence suggests that the glasses can cure the problem of concave eyeglass lenses ("minus" prescriptions). So, yes, they have been around a while, but they're definitely worth considering today if you are suffering from certain vision problems, including acquired myopia which is a more common condition now than in the past few decades.
