Pinhole glasses: a French innovation serving your vision
Pinhole glasses, also called stenopaeic glasses, have been used for over 30 years to relieve eye strain and naturally stimulate focus. Invented in France and manufactured in Europe, they rely on a simple but remarkably effective optical principle: the reduction of stray light rays.
Our Ophtalgym model is known for its comfort, effectiveness and patented mesh. If you want to discover the exact model, you can check out our Ophtalgym pinhole glasses .
A unique European know-how
Each pair is designed with precision to offer sharp vision, gentle progressive adaptation and ergonomics suitable for all faces.
For those who want to go further in their practice, we also offer a complete pack: the Pack Duo Clear Vision , ideal for practicing in pairs or for having a pair at home and a pair at work.
How do pinhole glasses really work?
The stenopaeic principle instantly improves sharpness by limiting the dispersion of light rays. The hexagonal micro-openings force the eye to adjust focus, which:
- reduces optical distortions,
- improves contrast perception,
- decreases eye strain,
- stimulates the mobility of eye muscles.

A natural solution to regain sharper vision
Pinhole glasses focus light on the retina and reduce refraction errors. They can bring real comfort to people suffering from myopia, presbyopia or mild astigmatism.
