Just to add to an old post. I have a famous piece of card i use when i dont have my lenses in. Works a treat, hold it close to the eyes and look right over the top edge. I think it is similar to the pinhole test but its great!

And I thought that I used to be the only one who watched TV at funny angles with my eyelid pressed and pulled into some unusual shapes :lol:

I use to do this regularly too.

But sadly no matter how much I try these days my vision is so bad the trick doesn't work any more.

I once had someone accusing me of not wanting to look at them. This due to constantly having my hand in such a position to see clearly that it blocked them from my sight. :lol:
