IST Pro Ear Diving Mask
- Colour: Blue
The Pro Ear Mask 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.
Essentials Extras
Remember to purchase SeaBuff to pre-treat your new mask lenses to reduce the chance of fogging.
It can be purchased individually or as part of the New Mask Package for all the essentials you need at even better value.

This mask has literally changed my life and allowed me to take up again a sport I love. I have suffered a recurrent perforation for years - very small hole in scar tissue. Nothing dramatic but it used to put an end to diving for a few months. The

I had been told that my snorkeling days were over after tympanoplasty and mastoidectomy 18months ago. I had done some research on the product and took the plunge last week. It arrived after a couple days a go and used it twice since. No great fuss. I still use some cotton wool and vaseline but all in all good. Free dived to 30 ft today. No problems. Top class product

This works a treat and is part of my belt and braces for ear protection since the last 5 years along with pre-treatment using Earol and post-treatment with my own recipe of ear beer following several ear infections whilst traveling in SE Asia around 2010 onwards. I've been using this mask for the past 5 years and decided to buy another as it works very well and easier to equalise with it.

I’ve been diving some 20 years. DM. All warm water stuff - mainly SE Asia. Never, ever had an ear problem. Equalisation has never been an issue. But. Age catches up with us all. Diving over the Christmas holiday I experienced an odd sensation in my left ear. Bit like a ‘squelch’. Post dive, for the first time diver ear drops failed to work. Ear properly blocked. That evening I had mild earache. First time for that, too. Ear finally cleared of water a couple of days later. Had a check up from an ENT consultant who recommended strongly that I should stop diving. WHAT! ? Ummm.......... options....... Googled the issue and discovered the 1ST Pro Ear Scuba Diving Mask. What the heck I might as well give it a go. I am a long time customer of Simply Scuba. They delivered very rapidly as usual (I live in Hong Kong). Today I tried out the mask for real, after practising yesterday in the pool. Wow! Ears totally dry during 2 X 1 hour dives from a boat. No water ingress at all. Most impressive. Looks like, with luck, I will be able to prolong my diving for a little while yet. I can’t say it is the most comfortable mask I have used but that is entirely understandable in the context of 1ST having to design a one size fits all. Marks out of ten for comfort? Maybe 7. Marks out of ten for utility? 10. Thank you 1ST and Simply Scuba. Mike

Fantástic mask that has changed my life. For 44 years I had never been under water due to ear problems and now I’m snorkelling most weekends! I live in Mallorca so am very lucky to have beautiful coves on my doorstep.
