If you’ve been diagnosed with sleep apnea, determining which CPAP mask is best for you can be a challenge, especially with the overwhelming amount of mask options that are available. To find a mask that’s most comfortable for you, your doctor may ask questions about your sleep preferences; such as your preferred sleeping position. But that’s not all; there is another piece that’s taken into consideration when it comes to choosing a CPAP mask that’s best for you.
