Eyeseals 4.0 Sleep Mask – Charcoal – Moisturizing Eye Masks for Sleep Keep Dry Air Out – Latex-Free Eye Mask Great for CPAP Users​

Comfortable. Seals well. Works as I need it to.I actually bought this to address ocular hypertension that is exacerbated by side sleeping. There are medical studies about it, and the use of goggles to try to prevent pressing your face (and thus lower eye...) into the pillow while side sleeping. The study I read showed 2x-4x increase in internal eye pressure due to this while, and googles used in the study (not EyeSeals, but no product was named) nearly eliminated it. Eye pressure rises at night naturally due to being horizontal, but preventing mashing your eye into the pillow greatly addresses the huge spikes in pressure that were seen in the study.The EyeSeals trap a decent amount of moisture in them, which is their designed purpose. I've not found a downside to that, even though my eyes close fully and I don't require this capability. The googles do leave a light imprint from pressing on my face, but it is nothing like, say, swim goggles. I don't tighten the EyeSeals all that tight. And the imprint is gone after 30 min or so after getting up.I clean the goggles daily using a dab of handsoap and water. Rinse them well. Drying can be a problem if the towel I use sheds any lint at all, because the EyeSeals are a bit tacky.EyeSeals seem to run large, so keep that in mind. I'm a 6'4" guy and they would be a problem for even me if they were a bit larger. But they work well for me as is.Anyway, hope it achieves what I need, because glaucoma (retina/optic nerve damage from high eye pressure) is a big deal. Cross fingers, I'm okay so far. But I came across this potential issue from sleeping and hope the EyeSeals do the job. The proof will be at my next eye checkup. I'll tell my doctor about the goggles and see what he thinks.UPDATE: The fully sealed nature of the goggles would result in increased air pressure against the eye if, say, I pressed my eye against the pillow while side sleeping. It was pressure that I could notice and try to prevent while conscious, but once asleep it would happen for an unknown period of time. Not good for a guy trying to eliminate external pressure against the eye.Solution: I used a leather punch -- the kind for putting holes in belts -- to punch a small hole in each lens. I first tried using a small drill, but the material is too flexible for that to work well. The punch appears to have worked great. It's an inexpensive punch you can buy here on Amazon or many other places.I've been using the goggles with the vent holes for a week now. It completely prevents the air-pressure issue. Surprisingly, it appears to have not lowered the moisture content in the goggles by any appreciable amount. I still have dripping condensation in each eye cup in the morning. So if this idea appeals to you to reduce eye pressure but you are concerned about losing moisture, well, in my case that has not been a problem. YMMV.

Fits well. I use a CPAP machine and was surprised at how well the two work together. It's a bit awkward to get on together but once you do, it seems to work just fine. I have washed it (per instructions) with gentle soap (baby shampoo) and they seem a bit "sticky" now, but I can't really remember if they were that way before I did. Silicone can be a bit "sticky" and it does seem to help them adhere to your eye sockets. People have mentioned that the headband seems to stretch and perhaps they made that comment it's been changed. The headband I got was two pieces of elastic attached to some fabric in the middle. If it does stretch, I don't see why I couldn't replace it with something else fairly easily. People have also mentioned how it "marks" their face. I haven't seen this issue.

If you have a CPAP, and you have eyeballs, you need this. Add in some eye gel at night, and you are set. My old ones started to lose headband elasticity after three years of use and I’m excited for the new version. Best purchase to protect my eyes. I’m going to subscribe so I can repurchase sooner. Honestly —- it costs the same amount of money to upgrade to comfort plus on a 2 hour flight. No brainer. My normal eye doctor retired, and I couldn’t find another seller in town. Thank you for putting these on Amazon!

My eye doctor recommended this to me for my dry eyes due to not closing my eyes completely while sleeping. For the price I figured it would be at least a little comfortable as well as effective. MassiveNo to both. The mask shape is too big so the rubber seal doesn’t fit around my face properly & leaves gaps at the bridge of my nose, between my eyebrows, my cheekbones etc no matter how much I adjust it. This left my eyes just as dry as they always are upon waking up which completely defeats their purpose. And the rubber seal is so heavy and uncomfortable. The rubber feels tacky and unpleasant on my skin, like I have a piece of tire on my face. For the price you’d think they’d add a soft cool material to the seal to make it a little more comfortable against your skin. They can put flocking inside rubber/latex cleaning gloves to make them more pleasant to wear why can’t they do that for these? Would it really compromise the seal that much? Might as well wear swimming goggles to sleep in. It’s winter right now & the air is dry so I can only imagine how miserable these will feel to wear on hot humid summer nights. Such a disappointment. I am returning.
