Information on the IST Pro Ear Mask - Blue

The Pro Ear Mask in Blue from IST is for divers who have difficulty in equalising and problems with ear infections regardless of experience. More dives are aborted and more diving holidays shortened due to ear problems than any other cause.
Water and pressure affect every diver's ears. Infection and discomfort to the ear are the most common health risks involved in diving, often causing permanent damage. Many divers find they must interrupt expensive, long awaited diving holidays as a result of ear problems. The financial loss and unfulfilled expectations are enormous.


Features

  • Silicone strap mounted on swivel buckles. A large contact surface secures the mask to the wearer
  • Clear skirt is made from hypoallergenic silicone and conforms to a wide range of facial profiles
  • Equalisation tubes. A one way valve is placed inside each tube, air is allowed to travel from the mask to the ear covers for pressure and equalisation and water clearance while stopping water flooding the mask in the unlikely event of flooded ear covers.
  • Ear Covers. Soft silicone ear covers form a water tight seal between the ear drum and the cover. The pressure buffer created has the same pressure as your nasal cavity mask when air exhaled through the nose is introduced through the equalisation tubes. Therefore the pressure experienced in your middle and outer ear is the same and the "squeeze" from the ambient will be significantly reduced. Other benefits by keeping the ears sealed include reduced chance of an ear infection from water, improved sense of direction and warmth retention.

Specification

  • Clear silicone skirt
  • Blue Frame
  • This mask does not take prescription lenses

Review It does exactly what it says it can do when fitted correctly, i noticed when i tried fitting and using for the first time ( just snorkelling ) that it seemed to leak, but, when i actually did my first discover scuba dive the girl that kitted me up said that they need checking and fitting by a buddy or trainer, to my amazement it worked perfectly. My ears are dry as a bone every time i dive and that peace of mind is worth the little extra hassle and price, you can also hear better or should i say your hearing doesnt get that muffled sound from the water, if your prone to infections or swimmers ear just go out and get one or borrow one and see for yourself. My instructor is on about getting one after seeing how well it works, only prob i can think of might be if you had long hair esp round your ears, i have no.1 back and sides every 6 weeks so the seal isnt a problem for me. Reason i got one is that as a child i had purforated eardrums ( now fully healed ) and have had a hole in my left ear drum twice ( one from polyp removal & one from blow to side of head playfighting ) both now repaired by myringoplasty ( skin graft repair ), trust me i wouldnt want to dive without this peice of kit after all ive been through, never thought diving would be an option for me but with this i feel safe and confident, and in hindsight i can say this is the first mask ive had that doesnt actually leak into the face area, all my old normal ones seemed to leak after a few weeks use, this is my third year since buying it and its like new, cant fault them, give the designer a medal.
