Let me start with some apologies, this review should have been up earlier. I received a pair of the pinhole glasses from Pinhole Glasses Direct a couple of weeks ago, but haven’t had time to do a proper review.

If you are unfamiliar with the concept of pinhole glasses, then check out our special pinholes section first.

The pinhole glasses arrived in a plain, unmarked bubble-pack envelope, no fancy packaging there to keep the price low.

 

I was pleasantly surprised by the manufacturing quality of the glasses. The construction is solid, definitely sturdy enough for years of use.

The traditional pinhole glasses are made entirely from black plastic. While this may keep the costs down, it certainly doesn’t get it any bonus points for the aesthetics.

This, on the other hand, has a clear plastic frame, which lends it an elegant air.

The “lenses” have to be black plastic, in order to perform its function effectively.

I counted the number of pin holes in each lens and it averaged around 130 per side. This is somewhat lower than the previous pinhole glasses I have tested before, which was around 180-250.

But the lower number didn’t seem to affect the performance.

The glasses fit snugly and comfortably around my face. It instantly provided clearer eyesight under bright lighting. I loved it best for taking walks in the park in sunny weather.

The sensation of wearing it is rather odd. I could feel a slight strain in the eyes as they adjust to the glasses. I usually use it for a period of 15 minutes each. But after I take them off, my eyesight feels sharper.

For best results, I would recommend that you use it for short periods of time daily.

Do note that all pinhole glasses are not suitable under dim lighting. As they obstruct your peripheral vision, they must not be used while driving.

Summary:

Superior quality pinhole glasses for a reasonable price. It would be better if they could include some basic instructions or even eye chart to track your progress.
