Really interesting. Suffering from macular degeneration, so this was a terrific insight into lenses and light. Thank you

For several years I only needed help seeing up to arm's length - reading glasses. I used pinhole glasses, which was great. But I needed improved vision to move about as well, as I aged. So, now I have to use lenses. But the pinholes put that off till I was 58, for maybe 15 years! Recommended!
