Myopia

Myopia is an eye disorder which can severely restrict vision over long distances. People affected by the problem are able to have only a hazy view of distant objects. Children are the worst affected victims to the disorder. It is a major cause of worry for parents because afflicting them at a very young age hampers their future severely.

In Myopia or near-sightedness, generally the normal distance between the retina and cornea is altered. Consequently the image which normally forms on the retina now falls in front of it. People with this problem, therefore have a hazy vision of distant objects.

It affects their distant vision more because to form a complete image light rays from all parts of the eyes are required for distant objects. Those rays coming at a severe angle to the eye membrane are not diffracted enough to be able to form an image on the retina. They converge in front of the retina and create a blurred image on the retina itself. This blurred image interferes with the otherwise clear image obtained from direct rays to the eyes and thus disturbs vision. 

Causes of Myopia are not very clear. It is still a subject of many ongoing researches in the field of ophthalmology. 

Some researchers have linked it to heredity-if it is present in parents, there is a high probability that the children get it too. But another interesting aspect of the researches is the contribution of environmental factors towards causing the disorder. Increasingly it is being believed that restricting vision to short distances over a prolonged period can induce myopic vision in the eyes.

Wearing pinhole glasses particularly helps in improving vision in such disorders. It blocks those rays from entering the eye which require much diffraction with the lenses to form images on the retina. For a more detailed explanation please visit here...

Hyperopia

Hyperopia occurs when either the eyeballs are shorter than their usual size or the cornea in the eye is flatter than normal. Owing to this, the image that normally would fall on the retina is now formed behind it. People suffering from hyperopia have a problem with near vision, although they can see distant objects clearly.

Pinhole glasses are not recommended to young patients suffering from this problem. At a young age the body is more responsive to exercises and training. Therefore it is better if you can cure the problem using eye exercises in their case.

However pinhole glasses can be of great help for age-related hyperopia. The small holes in pinhole glasses help in reducing the aperture through which light rays can enter the eye. This results in increase of its focal range. 

Moreover, it also helps in restricting the size of the light rays that can pass through. This directly assists in lowering the size of the blur formed on the retina and thus enables better vision.

Presbyopia

Presbyopia is condition in which the eye lens lose their ability to focus properly. It is a problem that is caused due to age. People over the age of 45 are at risk of getting the disorder.

As we age, the lens of our eyes become less flexible and is unable to work as efficiently as earlier. This considerably affects our close vision and we have problems with seeing nearby objects clearly. 

However this is entirely natural. We all can expect some level of deterioration of the lenses after the age of 65. Correcting it at an early stage is highly advisable as if left untreated the problem can aggravate and can take it beyond our control.

Using Pinhole glasses can help in improving vision in such cases. Pinholes narrow down the aperture of the eye. The size of light rays entering the eye is thus restricted controlling in turn the size of the blur that is formed on the retina. Improved vision is experienced as a result.

However it is advisable to use pinhole glasses in conjunction with eye exercises for treating Presbyopia. Exercising the eye muscles can make them stronger and prevent them from deteriorating further. 

 

Astigmatism

Sight related problems due to Astigmatism is caused by a cornea that is irregularly shaped. The usual shape of the cornea is a smooth and perfect curve. 

When the curvature is irregular, it causes light rays to make two images on the retina. This causes blurring of the vision and usually affects across all distances. However it can be present only with either near-sightedness or with far-sightedness alone. 

Pinhole glasses can help in such cases by decreasing the distance between the images. This reduces the size of the blur formed by the deformed cornea and so improves vision.

 

Cataract

Cataract is a condition where dead cells start accumulating in the lenses. These cells become white spots on the lens and disperse the light rays striking them. This results in a vision that is both blurred and incomplete. 

Cataract is generally caused due to old age. But it can also be caused due to exposure to Ultra-violet rays or to radiation. 

Pinhole glasses help in cases of cataract by reducing the effects of the cataract formation in the eye. They restrict the amount of light falling on the affected part of the eye. This reduces the amount of light dispersed by the cataract leading to better vision. 

 

Computer vision syndrome

We all use computers in the course of day to day work. Today computers have become an indispensable tool in the business world. However, spending long hours in front of the computer can cause eye strain. In the long run, this can lead to headaches, eye strain, dry eyes and general deterioration of vision. These eye related problems are collectively called Computer Vision Syndrome.

Harsh lighting, radiations from the monitors and continuous close-vision can take a toll on the eyes. Many a times people are forced to take leave from their work due to such problems. People try to cope with this problem by using anti-glare glasses, conducive lighting and ergonomically sound working environments. 

Alternatively, Pinhole glasses are an inexpensive way to prevent damage to your eyes when using computers. They control damage by limiting the amount of radiation that enters the eyes. They also increase the depth of vision. This way they reduce the eye strain by limiting the level of stress acquired through focusing while viewing.
