Blindfolds
Hello Everyone,
I know I'm not around much but I have become more or used to my CPaP now. I'm just curious if you all know of a Blindfold that works well with Full Face Masks like the Air Fit F20. I have tried alot of blindfolds and there is always light next to the nose area. Any suggestions would be helpful.

Re: Blindfolds
Helpful..... Not. See I have another condition that if I wake up and can't see anything i get dizzy from the spinning feeling I get, and that follows with nausia and Vomiting. SO I have no choice but to have a night light on. But I have always used a blindfold on nights that I'm unable to sleep to "Turn out the Lights" as you so obviously said. As if I wake up feeling like I'm spinning I can just take the blindfold off. I don't need anymore sarcastic remarks please.
paroxysmal positional vertigo (BPPV) is my other condition.

Re: Blindfolds
your best bet is to put goofproof on your foe list.
i use just a generic sleep mask from amazon. i also use a scunci headband over the top of it. this seems to block out any light seeping in around the nose.
mind you, i don't use a full face mask. i use a nasal pillow mask. so i don't know if wearing a headband on top of your sleep mask will all fit under a full face mask.

Re: Blindfolds
I have the 40 blinks eye mask, but I hand sewed a tuck in the middle to close the gap near my nose.
I don't need a mask most nights, but if the sun is up too early for my taste--it's handy.

Re: Blindfolds
Thank you for all the suggestions. I'll try and figure out how to sew the tuck in the middle to close the gaps.

Re: Blindfolds
Google Quartz sleep masks - specially made for Cpap use.
Re: Blindfolds
You might have lead with having a medical need for a light on in the room. rather than putting another item on my face. I would use a device like a Clapper, (Clap on Clap off) to turn on a light. { also have Led nite lights that turn on when they sense movement.. Just some ideas.

We have one of these we use near our stairs - works great for us. Been using them for years now.

Re: Blindfolds
The bullfrog put one in the kitchen.
The light goes out when I'm at the sink, because I'm out of range there.
