Manta Sleep Mask - 100% Light Blocking, Adjustable Sleeping Mask with Detachable Eye Cups, Ultra Comfortable for Women & Men, Zero Pressure on Lashes, Perfect for Travel/Shift Work

First, this is an expensive sleep mask. I've put off buying one for a few years because why would I pay that much, surely I can get the same with more "reasonably" priced masks. Out of stubborness, I've been through at least half a dozen of the most highly rated cheap masks on Amazon, which comes out to double the cost of this mask. One was pretty good but light still leaked in the bottom. It was comfortable and cheap but still not quite right. So I finally ate my pride and spent the luxury bucks on this mask. The difference is night and day, literally. The adjustible cups make it so easy to place them exactly where you need them. This allows for total blackout because you are not hampered by where the nose sits. The elastic seems a lot sturdier and is minimal compared to the cheaper masks, and that's better because I found the elastic going dead really fast requiring constant adjustment on the cheaper masks. The Manta stays put, and once I had it where I wanted it, it never slipped. It was right in the same place when I woke up. The eye cups add a little friction, but are not so rough that they irritate. The eye cups are comfortable, adjustible to negate the nose of the mask, and give total blackout. They are deep enough that my eyelashes don't rake if I open my eyes. I am a side sleeper and stomach sleeper and I didn't seem to have a problem, which was my main concern. I start out on my back and transition to stomach and it didn't wake me up. I didnt wake up with a headache or pressure from the eye cups, so it's fine for me, your milage may vary. It's only been one night of usage but Im not going back. I might even save up for the pro model. I should have just gotten this one to start and not spent more than this trying to not buy this one. I'm a fan.

I’ve tried countless sleep masks over the years, but the Manta Sleep Mask truly stands out as the best I’ve ever used. The first thing I noticed was how incredibly comfortable it feels—the adjustable eyecups are soft, cushioned, and designed so they never put pressure on your eyes. Unlike flat masks, it gives you 100% blackout no matter your sleeping position, which makes such a difference for falling asleep faster and staying asleep longer. Love the fact that I can adjust the eye sockets. The velcro doesn’t bother me much either. I’ve been using it for a few months and it has helped my sleep dramatically.

Honestly, the Manta Sleep Mask is kind of a game-changer. I used to just pull the covers over my head, but this thing is different. The main selling point for me is how customizable it is. You can move these little eye cups exactly where you need them so you get that total blackout effect, no annoying light sneaking in around your nose. Plus, they don't squish your eyes, which is awesome, especially if you nap on your side like I do. The material feels super soft—think premium stuff, not that cheap satin that makes your face sweaty. The strap is solid too; it actually stays put all night without digging into your head. Yeah, it looks a little bit like you’re wearing scuba gear to bed, but who cares when you wake up actually feeling refreshed? Whether it’s for travel, a quick daytime nap, or just blocking out my partner’s reading lamp, this mask is legit. It’s worth the cash if you're serious about catching some quality Z's. You can grab the basic Manta Classic Sleep Mask directly from Manta Sleep's website or check out prices on Amazon.

I was advised by my doctor to buy a cupped eye mask for my thyroid eye disease. my lids would not fully close at night when sleeping so i would wake up with dry, crusty, painful eyes and frequent styes. i got this mask, and another mask with a flatter cup, shortly after getting punctal plugs installed in my tear ducts. i have to say that the masks function just as effectively, if not more so, than the punctal plugs. my punctal plugs fell out so i can compare mask use both with and without the plugs, and can safely say the mask does most of the work. i can't sleep without the masks. if i do, or if they come off at night, then i wake up with my eyes feeling absolutely butchered. i can't believe i didn't buy this sooner. if you have thyroid eye disease then don't hesitate - buy this mask (or any other cupped eye mask). i like that the eye cups are removable and adjustable with velcro, and the head strap is also velcro adjustable. for the most part, it is comfortable and completely blocks light. my eyes are not nearly as dry as they use to be upon waking up. i can't sleep without it now. i will go into the cons now - for this particular model, i found that the cup padding would press into my sinus/nose bridge and could interfere with breathing comfort a little. but the trade off is worth it. on days when i feel extra sensitive, or more asthmatic, and it bothers me too much, then i will switch out this mask for a more lightweight model. sometimes the mask comes off my face at night and i am not sure if it's me pushing it off, or it coming off by itself. sometimes it does get a little warm, so maybe unknowingly, in my sleep, i end up pushing it off. i often rotate between this eye mask, and the ones with less defined eye cups. but having the eye cup is key as a flat, standard mask wont cut it. if you are a side sleeper, then the cups might end up being pushed around a bit, especially if you move around a lot when you sleep. whether you choose this particular model or another one i am sure you will find relief. totally worth the money, cheaper than punctal plugs, and works just as well, if not better, than the punctal plugs. keeps my eyes from drying out completely in my sleep and it improves my sleep quality. even though my ted has improved with medication i will still continue to sleep with this mask on, especially in winter with the heat on causing dryness. sad that this isn't sold in pharmacies or covered by insurance, it's truly an eye-saver. love it.

It is bulky, so the first time I tried to use it I found it uncomfortable and took it off. After a couple of tries, I committed myself to give it an honest effort. I now love it. Despite its size its very light weight and fairly comfortable. It DOES block out all light which is the biggest benefit. Says its designed for side sleepers.....well, I am a side sleeper and it does contact my pillow, but not enough (for some it may) for it to affect me falling asleep.

My initial thoughts when I received this was dang! This thing is nice!! And in many aspects it is. Its a very sleek design. Can tell that its well made with quality fabric. Very robust. The lining is very soft and pleasant on the skin. The eye cups are very comfortable and I like that they are modular whether you need to change the spacing or opt for cups of different material. One might think this thing is a bit over engineered but I appreciate the options. I had two main issues when using it. The first is how it attaches. Im a back sleeper so where the strap conjoins it creates a large enough knot on the back of my head where it becomes quite uncomfortable. The 2nd is the strap width. It remains thick enough where it really bothered my ears. I tried it laying under my ears (like glasses) really pushed down on my ears. Was very uncomfortable. I tried wearing it over my ears and that was comfortable enough that I could fall asleep but upon waking ip in the middle of the night, my ears became quite painful. Gave it a try for 2 nights and had to call it quits.

Blocks out all light and it’s super easy to position the eye cups so they conform to your face. Very soft material and the strap stays put without being bothersome. Love it.

Great sleep mask. I got this originally for my long distance flight from Dallas to Madrid. I like the eye cups since they relieve pressure from the eye lids. It entirely blocked light for me and enabled me to relax on the plane ride. I now use this mask regularly at home. It is very comfortable and works well - I recommend it to others.
