WEARING EYEGLASSES OVER A FULL FACE MASK

MANY THANKS to all who answered my first post where I asked if anyone knew of any source that might be able to fabricate eyeglasses than fit over a full face mask. All of you wondered WHY I wanted to wear the eyeglasses and the others just told me to change CPAP masks. However...no one knew of any ...

Re: Wearing reading glasses with full face cpap mask

I am curious about the need for glasses with a mask. Is it to see something about the mask when it's on or is it for reading or watching tv? I can't imagine having the mask going when reading or watching tv but I did recently make note of the fact that I could wear glasses if I got the Swift FX in ...

However, the mask covers the bridge of my nose and my glasses won't fit over the mask so I can use the glasses to read a book. Does anyone know of an Optician or anyone who designs o...

Re: Wearing reading glasses with full face cpap mask

Red You don't have to wear that mask, get another that will allow you to wear your glasses. If you are a mouth breather like I am, try the Respcare/Innomed Hybrid mask, there is nothing on the bridge of your nose. I'm as blind as a bat without my glasses and this is the mask that works best for me....
