Eye mask compatible with Mirage Quattro FFM

Post by Citation4444 » Mon Jul 28, 2014 5:41 pm

As the subject says, I'm looking for an eye mask for use with my Mirage Quattro FFM. I am getting some slight eye irritation in my left eye that might be due to a small air leak. My machine says I have zero leaks, and I can't feel any leak, but I want to try an eye mask to eliminate that possibility. Does anyone know of an eye mask that I can wear while maintaining the seal of the FFM?

Do you want to use an eye mask to eliminate air leaks from the MQFFM, or to block light while using the MQFFM, or both?

Others using *nasal* masks have reported some success with the Sleep Master http://www.amazon.com/Revolutionary-Pat ... 387&sr=1-1

I found these in a google search, but I'm pretty skeptical:

If you find a solution, please post. I use a MQFFM also and you've inspired me to try hacking one together and post my results.

If you want to try the Sleepmaster, I have one I don't want.

How do you find its compatibility with CPAP? With nasal mask?

I use nasal pillows. It was compatible with them just fine, it was just too big (my face is fairly small) and hot (in the summer) for me. I use a 40 Blinks cut down slightly now.

I have a clean black sock on my headboard, when I want an eyemask, I just poke it through the gap between the cushion and the forehead rest, and tuck the ends under the straps. works great
