For sufferers of refractive eye disorders, pinhole
glasses work out the eyes and assist in enhancing sight perception.
Exercising the eyes' focusing ability develops their responsiveness to
things seen.

EYE EXERCISE FOR THOSE WITH VISION PROBLEMS ANOTHER WAY
TO SHARPEN YOUR VISION BESIDES PRESCRIPTION LENSES
Although the concept of pinhole
glasses has been around for some time, it is only in recent years
that pinhole glasses have risen in popularity. This is in part due
to the more stylish and well-finished designs that are available on
the market today, together with a greater acceptance of their
usefulness by consumers and medical professionals alike. It is
now widely accepted that pinhole glasses are another way of
improving vision for those suffering with refractive error eye
disorders. A simple test of the glasses will show that they increase
sharpness using a technology quite different from corrective lenses.
Indeed even ophthalmologists use pinhole equipment to check eyes for
refractive disorders during eye examinations. Many are turning to
pinhole glasses as an eye exercise method and to spell off their use
of concave eyeglass lenses.
HOW DO PINHOLE GLASSES WORK?
When you look at a blurred object your brain moves the focus
of the eye in and out until it gets an increase in contrast. If no
increase is achieved your brain leaves the object unfocused.
Pinholes improve the sharpness of the image, encouraging your
brain to find the point of focus. During this process the focusing muscles
of the eye are getting used more and this regular exercise helps your
eyes’ focusing system.
THE BENEFITS OF PINHOLE
GLASSES:
Using
pinholes for cataracts Many people with cataracts see
better through pinholes. A cataract is one or more opacities in the
lens that do not allow the light to pass through properly but
instead cause it to scatter.
Using pinholes as
sunglasses Pinhole glasses also reduce the brightness of
the sun, just like sunglasses. Just put on a pair of pinholes on a
sunny day and see how the brightness of the sun is reduced.
Using pinholes as
computer glasses It would seem that pinhole glasses
offer a good solution to problems such as fatigue, headache, dry
eyes, eyestrain, blurred vision and double vision due to too-long
hours at the computer screen.
A complement to dealing
with Myopia This brings us to a very important use for
pinholes, as part of a regimen for improving the condition of
Myopia. When a person's eye has become abnormally elongated due to
excessive close work, the outermost rays come to a focus in front of
the retina and cause the blurred vision.
1.
Improvement to vision
clarity & resolution For sufferers of refractive eye
disorders, pinhole glasses will improve the clarity & resolution
of your vision. It is an alternative technology to concave
corrective lenses. Exercising the eye muscles and perceptual system
with a different kind of clarity enhancement can add to your
vision-improving resources.
2.
Increases object
brightness Pinhole glasses are proven to increase
apparent object brightness, relative to other objects in the
perceptual field - ideal if you struggle with vision in low-light
situations.
3.
Good clarity at all
distances Unlike bi-focal and tri-focal glasses that are
designed to yield good vision at fixed distances, pinhole glasses
allow you to see clearly at all distances, whether short, middle or
long distance focus is required. Many users also find them less
stressful on the eye than multi-focal or vari-focal lenses.
4.
One pair suits all
situations Whether you are reading a book or watching
TV, one pair of pinhole glasses is all you'll need.
5.
Lightweight, Durable Our
pinhole glasses are lightweight, weighing no more than traditional
spectacles. No need to worry about scratches & marks on
the lenses. The performance of pinhole glasses is not adversely
affected by defects that would otherwise degrade visual acuity
through eyeglasses.
