Blocks light, helps with flickering sensation post-cataract surgery.
Bought after reading reviews from others, agree, it was just what I needed post-cataract surgery. You are light sensitive after surgery, and this does the trick filtering light, but allowing you to see. In fact, slept in it for about a week, (bought some tape, too, at the time) even though doc said only need a shield for a day (the clear one they provided). Nurse said about 4 days, I went a week, just to make sure I didn't bonk my eye in my sleep.<br /><br />Also, post-cataract surgery you can have a flickering sensation as your eye heals from the outer edge of your eye. As for my first eye a few weeks ago, that's mostly done with, but sometimes need still need it. At first, I just walked around with it half-taped on. Afterwards, just stuck it under my glasses while at home. Lol, look like a pirate space alien, but whatever. :)<br /><br />The material around it (stretchy) is a nice addition. Can be removed to wash.<br /><br />I even bought a second one for next surgery - just in case I need to look full-on alien at times. :)
