Has anyone figured out how to solve eye leaks with the Hybrid, even with a good nasal pillows seal???

Chuck,
I'm wondering if the cheek-to-cheek radius of the mask is a good fit to your face. I would think 'eye leaks' may be the result of a mask with too tight of a 'curve'. The three mouthpieces that are included with the mask,
all have different 'curves'. The large one is the flattest. Have you tried the large one? Another idea is to 'build up' the spot that leaks with Moleskin.

I've used the Hybrid for almost 2 weeks now, and at this point I think I would do anything to keep on using it. For me, the main advantage of the Hybrid is its inhalation quality.
