The black plastic is hard and sharp and could easily injure eyes. It is probably great for meditation,and anyone who sleeps only on their back, but in my opinion too dangerous for anyone who does not.

I was a little surprised to see this advertised as a “sleeping mask”, because I bought it somewhere else where it was geared towards meditators, and it works excellent for that. I can’t even imagine trying to sleep with it, it has thick foam that sticks out about an inch from the face. It’s very comfortable, but wouldn’t be that great for sleeping, it seems, unless you only sleep on your back. The reason it sticks out from the face is because there are holes in the thick foam, so that you can open your eyes completely, without feeling anything pressing against your eyes, and yet it’s completely dark. If I were to get something for sleeping, I would think a simple cloth thing that covers the eyes more like a bandanna would be a lot more comfortable. But for meditation, and for doing yoga, etc. it’s awesome.

I keep trying to find a better sleep mask than this (look at my reviews for others I’ve tried) but I keep coming back to Mindfold.
The Mindfold does an absolutely perfect job of blocking out all light, and is very comfortable (might not be when you sleep on your side, however.)
Minuses: this is a cheaply made product, made from cheap materials. It cannot be cleaned. So if you like this, you will buy it over and over again.

I have worn these masks for years. It not only keeps light out but keeps air out of my eyes. Through the years they’ve made them a little smaller so you are not pushing against the side of the plastic on your pillow and causing them to move. I am a side sleeper for the most part. I’ve awakened to broad daylight with sun streaming in and was completely surprised. It would be good if they made them in 3 sizes or at least two. I think you have to get used to them and be sure they are centered and the velcro strap is at just the right pressure to keep the mask on without pressing against your eyes. I adjust them from time to time as they loosen.
I rarely sleep without them and use them on planes all the time. They were recommended by a friend of mine a long time ago who uses them for the entire family for travel on planes.

After using half a dozen other sleep masks, this one is by far the best. This mask completely blocks out all light, so those of us who are sensitive to light can sleep without being disturbed by the first rays of sunlight or by your partner’s reading light, television viewing, etc.
The best feature is the eye cut-outs–they allow you to blink your eyes, as we all do normally in sleep, without your eyelashes touching any part of the mask. It is very comfortable to wear. I highly recommend this product.
