A member asked:
If you have a retinal tear, does the pinhole test not improve blurry vision?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Two separate questions , first if you have a retinal tear it needs to be fixed. The pinhole test is to see if your blurry vision can be improved with a glasses or contact prescription.
