Pinhole glasses are a natural replacement of conventional eyeglasses, because conventional glasses lead to the weakening of eye muscles and create the need to wear eyeglasses with even larger diopters…
Pinhole glasses come from the ancient Indian medicine – Ayurveda. They were known to American Indians and used in Germany for more than one hundred years. Recent pinhole glasses have become increasingly popular in Australia and South Africa, and more recently in northern Europe. More and more ophthalmologists and opticians around the world show interest in pinhole glasses. Doctors agree with the fact that wearing these glasses leads to long-term improvement of vision.
Pithole glasses enable people to see objects by moving their eye. The holes provide an unlimited depth of focus so that even when the eye does not focus properly, the objects will appear as if they were in focus. It is important that they eliminate the dispersion of light on the cornea and thus improve vision.
“After much testing we can conclude that pithole glasses help with problems of vision and thereby have no consequences.” – said dr. Joseph I. Pascal, director of the eye department at Stuyvesant Polyclinic, USA.
How do they work?
Pithole glasses improve coordination between the brain and eye sight and help to learn how to focus without glasses. Difficulties in focus arise when the image is created in front of the eye cornea (shortsightedness) or behind it (farsightedness). So from every point where the image is made, occurs fuzzy circle. Conventional lenses work on the principle of bringing images on the cornea, in order to see clearly. This can result in laziness of the ocular muscle. Therefore, with time increasing diopters are required. Bringing the number of holes in front of the eye reduces the effective aperture of the eye (from that determined by the pupil of the eye to the size of holes in front of the eye). It reduces the size of a vague circle, which explains the improvement of vision wearing pinhole glasses. The reduced size of the fuzzy circle is brought within the scope of the mechanism for focusing the eye, which can then bring the picture in perfect focus and by that again learn how to focus at a distance.
The fact is that pithole glasses help focus, which can be useful to apply to reduce eye strain. Experience has shown that pithole glasses reduce eye strain and headaches in people who are engaged in work in confined spaces or spend much time in front of the TV or computer.
Pithole glasses would help with these eye diseases:
• myopia
• foresight
• astigmatism
• aged farsightedness
• hypersensitivity to light
• prevention / relief of eye strain
• headache caused by long-term work in front of the monitor
• in situations where conventional glasses are blurred (eg, during cooking or bathing)
