Pinhole glasses

Used in a diagnostic setting to differentiate whether reduced vision is secondary to uncorrected refractive error or to disease/amblyopia. By eliminating the peripheral light rays and concentrating the central bundles of light, the vision can be "sharper". But they have no therapeutic value. Pinhole glasses can't permanently improve one's vision.
