This is actually one of the features that I am most excited about. I am looking forward to not always having to tell people \"Here's how to jerry-rig your goggle with some scissors and thread\" or \"Sorry, there's just no better option\".\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSide and stomach sleeper friendliness:\u003c\/strong\u003e Blinkjoy seems clearly designed for this purpose - within limits and recognizing that we are all different and our tolerances vary. The silicone eye cups' depth is sufficient to provide a gap over the orbit. While I'm on the subject, though, a word of caution for face sleepers with FES, TED or other conditions keeping their lids substantially open at night: Blinkjoy may be a great product for you but for safety's sake, please make sure to consult your eye doctor before using it. (Actually, everyone else ought to ask their doctor before using any product of this kind, but I worry especially about these folks.) For those who are curious, FES = Floppy Eyelid Syndrome (yes, it's a thing) and TED = Thyroid Eye Disease (a\/k\/a Graves Disease).\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSuper-secure strap:\u003c\/strong\u003e If your experience with moisture goggles has been \"I find it on the floor in the morning\", I would venture to say that that is very unlikely to be the case with Blinkjoy. The strap is not a flimsy add-on - it's a continuum of the mask itself and seems very secure, but the tradeoff is that it is bulkier.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eWho should try Blinkjoy\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePeople with nocturnal lagophthalmos\u003c\/strong\u003e (incomplete lid closure at night): It's clearly designed with 'noclag' in mind: shaped to trap moisture while vaulting the eyes so that your exposed eye surfaces don't dry out excessively overnight but also don't touch anything else.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePeople with night dry eye protection needs who also have custom fit needs:\u003c\/strong\u003e A terrific feature of Blinkjoy is that the eye cups can be positioned wherever you need them.

This advice is partly born out of years of experience watching people buy a product and return it only to buy it again when they eventually figure out that, while nothing was perfect, the one they bought first actually worked better than everything they tried subsequently. But the other reason that I say to give it awhile is that this type of product in general typically does not give instant relief, although of course you may be an exception. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eLast, something that probably no one wants to hear, though I think it will resonate with many veteran patients: Sometimes with moisture goggle type things you just can't explain the results. I mean there have been nights when I have worn a perfectly sealed goggle or shield and when it was literally dripping wet in the morning but my eyes felt like cardboard anyway. Other times they give me lots of relief.

Our goal is to create a humid microenvironment for the eyes and prevent excessive evaporation of tears to minimize symptoms of dry eye. However, tear deficiency is common for those with dry eye, which means you may not have enough tears to begin with. Applying drops or ointment prior to wearing your mask will help alleviate this problem and maximize the benefits of sleeping with your Blinkjoy mask.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eWill I experience red marks or puffy eyes?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIn rare cases for those with extremely sensitive skin, wearing a moisture mask may cause irritation or red marks after initial use.

If this applies to you, we have heard success from many customers that slowly increasing wear time was beneficial. Start with an hour your first night, then two hours, and so on. After one to two weeks, you should have no problem sleeping through the night with your Blinkjoy mask. Even if your mask takes some getting used to, stick with it...your eyes will be happy you did.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eWhat if I am a side sleeper?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eYour Blinkjoy mask will work best if you sleep on your back or partially on your side.

While I'm on the subject, though, a word of caution for face sleepers with FES, TED or other conditions keeping their lids substantially open at night: Blinkjoy may be a great product for you but for safety's sake, please make sure to consult your eye doctor before using it. (Actually, everyone else ought to ask their doctor before using any product of this kind, but I worry especially about these folks.) For those who are curious, FES = Floppy Eyelid Syndrome (yes, it's a thing) and TED = Thyroid Eye Disease (a\/k\/a Graves Disease).\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSuper-secure strap:\u003c\/strong\u003e If your experience with moisture goggles has been \"I find it on the floor in the morning\", I would venture to say that that is very unlikely to be the case with Blinkjoy. The strap is not a flimsy add-on - it's a continuum of the mask itself and seems very secure, but the tradeoff is that it is bulkier.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eWho should try Blinkjoy\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePeople with nocturnal lagophthalmos\u003c\/strong\u003e (incomplete lid closure at night): It's clearly designed with 'noclag' in mind: shaped to trap moisture while vaulting the eyes so that your exposed eye surfaces don't dry out excessively overnight but also don't touch anything else.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePeople with night dry eye protection needs who also have custom fit needs:\u003c\/strong\u003e A terrific feature of Blinkjoy is that the eye cups can be positioned wherever you need them.

This advice is partly born out of years of experience watching people buy a product and return it only to buy it again when they eventually figure out that, while nothing was perfect, the one they bought first actually worked better than everything they tried subsequently. But the other reason that I say to give it awhile is that this type of product in general typically does not give instant relief, although of course you may be an exception. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eLast, something that probably no one wants to hear, though I think it will resonate with many veteran patients: Sometimes with moisture goggle type things you just can't explain the results.

Our goal is to create a humid microenvironment for the eyes and prevent excessive evaporation of tears to minimize symptoms of dry eye. However, tear deficiency is common for those with dry eye, which means you may not have enough tears to begin with.
