why does squinting improve vision?

At least for me, I notice that when I squint, my vision becomes sharper. I don’t know if this is a common thing, but I’m curious as to why it happens

When you squint, your eyelids limit the light entering your eye so the rays of light that enter your eye can make the image appear more focused, letting you have clearer vision while squinting

It would be a good idea to see an optometrist/an eye doctor when you can though, it sounds like you might need glasses
