    Full face mask and glasses

    My PALS has been using the Trilogy 24/7. As her face has lost muscle tone, leakage has become a major issue. Both due to noise and air blowing in her eyes. She has been using the ResMed F10 in XS and even with that we have had to modify the head gear for a tighter fit. Anyway, the problem...
