Thank you Nuts and Laurie for responding. I remember seeing posts in the past that discussed Trilogy settings. I really didn't pay attention to them at the time. I tried a search, wanting educate myself, but came up with nothing. I will talk to RT tomorrow and see if she has any suggestions.

I have been using my Trilogy at night for 1.5 years and for the past 6 months appropriately 6-8 hours during the day. Lately I have been having issues, usually in the morning, where I struggle with exhaling. The Trilogy is ramped up with strong inhalation breathes and I tend to take in 5 or 6...

Hi Idaho. There could be a couple nerves being affected here. Your upper lids are held up by your levator muscle. It is innervated by the ocularmotor nerve ( 3rd cranial nerve) , which also controls the muscles that move your eyeball around. The muscles that help you blink is a different nerve...

I have a very simple suggestion which may help. I know my fixation on my Tobii bounces all over when my eyes are dry. Not sure how cold and dry it is now in Tennessee, but up in northern Michigan, humidity in the house is very low this time of year. Hope it is something as simple as some...
