   beware, you can get really depressed wearing them due to some lack of light comming into your brain

   Why do you say that? I have used them for many years with no depression. You don’t wear them all day long. IF that were the case, wouldn’t people who wear sun glasses have depression?

   I have been using them for 10 years and I did stop using my prescription glasses for very many years. In fact, I just got glasses recenbtly and only wear them when I need to read all day long–but they actually are not better than the pinholes.

   They most definitely helped–especially when doing the eye exercises that came with them. MY problem is more my eye muscles taking too long to change from near to far. So when I do not exercise my eyes ( which the glasses automatically do) I actually have pain in my eye muscles which causes blurry vision.
   9 out of 10 people who tried my pinholes had immediate improved vision–while wearing them.

   How can you be sure the pinholes caused the depression? How did you control for other variables? How long did you wear them?
   I am healthcare practitioner, very familar with the multitude of possible causes of depression–most of which are unknown to the general public–which is why there is so much misdiagnosed depression.
   I recommend getting tested by a kinesiologist to be sure.
   If the pinholes cause depression then wouldn’t sunglasses also cause depression by blocking light?

   I’ve been using them daily for about two weeks now

   I was wondering how long it was before you started to notice a difference in your eyesight? And how long did you practice with them every day?

    As soon as I put them on I can immediately see better. I still wear them–12 years later–when I read a lot or work at the computer. They kept my eyes from deteriorating and I no longer wore prescription lenses . .
    One thing that has not changed is wearing them prevents eye migraines.

    I generally wear them two hours a day and do the exercises that came with them. anything to use your eye muscles rather than let them weaken so you will need ever stronger prescription lenses.

    That’s wonderful that they have helped you to the extent that you don’t wear your prescription lenses

    When was it that you noticed you started seeing better without the pinhole glasses as well?

    Mine unfortunately didn’t come with exercises

    I am not a doctor so do not take this as medical advice.
    When you wear prescription lenses your eyes are forced to focus through the center of the lens. Therefore your eye muscles weaken over time causing you to need stronger and stronger prescription lenses.
    If, for some reason, the school would prevent your taking optimal care of yourself then wear them when you are not in school.This is your life.
    Whatever you do–is your choice.
