Masks
Your local dive shop offers a wide selection of dive masks with various features and styles.
Optional Mask Features
Like all dive equipment, masks are available in several styles and with optional features.
Low-Volume Design
In general, masks with separate right and left lenses are designed to position the lenses closer to your eyes. This improves vision and makes it easier to clear water from the mask.
Purge Valve
A purge valve is a one-way valve placed below the nose to assist in clearing water from the mask. This is not required, and you'll learn how to clear water from a standard mask during this course.
Prescription Lenses
Most masks can be fitted with prescription lenses. Your dealer can provide you with information regarding availability of prescription lenses for a specific model.
