The other day I found a video that
claimed you could make your vision clearer without glasses just by
looking though a small pin hole. It claimed that if you made a tiny
hole using your fingers and look through it, you would be able to see
clearly.
As someone who wears glasses for
distance, this seemed very far fetched but I decided to give it a
try. I took off my glasses, made a tiny hole to look through and
then looked at some blurry text in front of me. Sure enough it
actually worked! Now it is not perfect and it is certainly not as
clear as with glasses, but it made the text clear enough to read
compared to without this method when it was completely blurry.
Apparently this method works by
limiting the amount of light that get through so there is not as much
that is focused on different parts of the eye. Because of this, the
light that does get through the small hole is more focused and more
clear.
I was so impressed by this trick I
decided to make my own little pair of pin hole glasses. Well they
are not really glasses, but more a credit card size piece of
cardboard with 2 small holes poked it in. I spaced them out about
the right width so I could look through with both eyes at the same
time. This is a bit difficult especially when trying to see things
at different distances so sometimes it is easier to just look through
one hole and close the other eye.
I put this card in my wallet to carry
with me at all times in case of an emergency. If I were to loose my
glasses for whatever reason and needed to see something clearly in
the distance, I could take out the card to use as a quick replacement
for the glasses. If you wear glasses, I would highly recommend
trying this technique so you can use it if you ever need to see
something without glasses.
