how clear are they to look through?

Very decent, for amateurs this is actually a very good deal. You must be aware about how to correctly adjust the diopter ring, which is probably the only thing that could make you think they are not working. To me, this product worth it.

Very clear. Light weight I like them a lot. We use them on our property to view wildlife

I call the ones I have see-through. They are not perfectly clear but I have no trouble reading the contents. I use them all the time and love them!

Black, but partly see-though, depending on distance from which it is viewed. Didn't have any trouble looking through it when close.

Hi L., Maureen here from The Friendly Swede:-) The answer is (as all of our kind customers have stated so far) no. They are not transparent. They will not show through. If I can help you further please reach me here at my direct link:

It's translucent not transparent. I could see the outline but it wasn't 100% clear.

Yes & no. It's not totally transparent. (What I most like is clear. I.e. you see your pages as if thru glass.) These are translucent, slightly opaque white-ish, so you CAN identify the contents of the top page, but it's slightly murky, you wouldn't want to read a long document without taking it out. (The clear ones seem hard to find, or have some "feature" I don't want, i.e. a thicker colored border edge so it's much bigger than a sheet of paper.) But if you're sorting a batch of these or looking for a particular file pocket without taking the page out to see what it is, these will do the trick. (Just not as well as clear ones.) Yes & no.

The cups are clear and you can see through them but not see through glass crystal clear. The tops are clearer.

It isn't clear, but it isn't opaque either. You can see through it, but don't expect to be able to showcase anything with it on.

It's see through enough to see shapes but details might be harder to see...

Maybe a millimeter put it this way, you can see through it if you can get your eye to focus correctly.

They are not completely clear, but you can see something trough it especially if you have a single flap door.

You can see through them, not clearly since they are colored, but you can see things through them and they allow light in also which is nice. Hope that helps.

We found it quite clear. My husband uses to read the paper(s) and finds it easy on the eyes.

It's slightly see through but not completely so if you're going to trace something I think you could see it.

The readout numbers are approx 1/4". I can see them without my reading glasses.

Hey jim, it's hard to say. I don't wear glasses. It may be a little uncomfortable. You would have to try it to see.

Probably. It's as pictured so it would show thru clear or transparent plates
