Communication problems in today’s world of Covid19.

Under the best of times, some of us don’t communicate all that well, unfortunately. Face masks that cover our mouths and expressions make it even harder to convey our messages effectively. A face covering is particularly problematic for those of us with hearing issues. Reading someone’s face and/or lips is important for people who are deaf or hard of hearing.

Though admittedly not yet perfected, transparent face masks are available and affordable. (These are not medical grade). As with any product, some brands are better than others. These transparent face masks make great gifts for loved ones!

Note: The current clear window masks for sale work well in many situations, but some tend to be warm or can fog up when used for extended periods of time. A new transparent design called HelloMask is currently in the works that looks to be more protective and comfortable; we hope to see them for sale in early 2021. Researchers say the HelloMask will be disposable and eco-friendly, and have the right combination of transparency, resistance and porosity for safety and comfort. 

We recommend using an Anti-Fog Spray with these products.
