CPAP machine

[Cobblers12]

Hi all

I have sleep apnoea, which means I have to wear a mask all night (pumping air in, to avoid constant 'wake ups' ), but unsure if this is causing more problems with the glaucoma, as waking up with tearful eyes. Does anyone else have this problem ~ is mask & straps making the situation worse ? I only seem to get a Mr Boyce of Peckham car sales type of answer when asking busy 'specialists' ("Yeah, mate, should be ok, don't think anything to worry about " !!) . Any help would be greatly appreciated.

I have had Glaucoma for around10 years and wear a C-Pap mask for around 15 years, no problem wearing it with eye problems, but if the mask leaks into your eyes that would make them run. Good luck.

Thanks very much for this, Floki (sorry, only just seen your reply!). That's reassuring, though.
