Noctura 400 Reviews 

Easy to use not had a eye sight test yet to see if there is any improvement yet be sight seems a little better

Before purchasing Noctura 400, I had many questions which were answered and reassured me to go forward with the purchase.The product was delivered within 24 hours of ordering it.

I have been using the Noctura mask for 1 month now and find that by wearing it, my eyes feel more relaxed. The green light that comes from the pod does not interrupt my sleep, however, I need to secure the strap better as it sometimes slides up and down on my head. I have been advised to secure the strap with a grip on either side, which I will try.

I am due to have a diabetic eye test soon and hope to have some positive results 🤞🏻

Superb service, very caring and helpful

Central macular went blind after fis

Thus mask is brilliant. Iv been using them for over a year and have noticed huge improvement in my eye. Staff are excellent, very quick at responding and very knowledgeable

Just received my second mask, exactly when I needed the next one. I’ve been using a Noctura 400 since April. I saw a comment on Reddit recommending it for Retina treatment, whilst sitting in an Airport just scrolling to occupy time.

I had an appointment with my ophthalmologist this morning. There is a significant improvement, not accounted for by the antiVEGF injections I have been having for a year. This is an unexpectedly marked improvement, which can only be use of the mask.

Noctura 400 has saved my sight

I was diagnosed with DMO in January and was told I needed urgent treatment, the vision in both my eyes was blurred, but my right eye was so bad I could only see a black cloud. My Optician said he wasn’t sure if treatment would improve my sight he explained the reason for the black cloud was because of the swelling behind my eye.

I was unable to go for conventual treatment in Hospital due to a severe phobia and the NHS refused to fund me to go a private clinic.

I purchased the Noctura 400 sleep mask and almost straight away my vision started to clear , I didn’t expect any improvement that quickly, in fact I can say I was honestly sceptical and did wonder if this Mask was so good as the testament’s read, why is it not available on the NHS as surely it would help so many people and save so much money.

Well my vision continued to improve and the black cloud cleared, I had a repeat OCT scan and full eye test last week just 12 weeks after the last one, and my Optician was amazed he said the swelling in my right has almost gone, and my overall vision in both eyes had improved. I don’t need to see him for another 6 months.

I am now starting my 4th month with the mask, I cannot stress enough how this has changed my life, to be able to see properly again

Thank you Noctura

n August last year I received a letter following my annual diabetic eye sight test to say that issues had been identified in both my eyes but particularly in my right eye and an appointment was being made to see an eye specialist at my local hospital.

Having been a Type 2 diabetic for the past 16 years without many issues this caused me to panic a bit !!

I had seen articles about the Noctura 400 eye mask on the internet, but was very sceptical about its use/success, the cost and the fact it had not been adopted by the NHS.

Anyway in advance of my appointment with the consultant I decided to take the plunge and purchased my first eye mask, still very sceptical, I had various eye tests at Specsavers (kindly paid for by Noctura 400) to give me a base line to test my wearing of the mask.

I had my appointment in January this year and was pleased to find out that my eye sight/issues had remained stable with no change. I told the consultant about the Noctura eye mask and he stated it had been tested the previous by the local NHS but did not achieve the 60% positive response for results that might have meant it being available with the NHS. When I asked his advise on its continued use he was of the opinion that it would do no harm and may offer positive results.

I purchased a second mask in January this year.

I went for a second full eye test and scans at Specsavers in mid-March this year (again paid for by Noctura 400) and in discussion with the optician was advised that again there was no deterioration in my diabetic issues but that my eyesight had actual improved in both eyes and that I needed to reduce my prescription !!

I was delighted with this news and went ahead and ordered my third mask, which I’m currently using now.

Although I am unable to claim it is the Noctura 400 face mask that at this time has halted any further deterioration in my eyes regarding diabetic disease or helped improved the eyesight in both my eyes, I don’t believe that it is coincidence with what has happened to me personally and I will continue with the mask wearing at this time and continue to monitor the results.

After all I have said there are several negatives for me.

The main is the cost of the mask and the hope that the NHS does adopt it in the future, the second is the difficulty in the wearing of and keeping in place the mask overnight as I like to sleep on my side or stomach. There are some great groups on Facebook who have offered various tips but still an issue for me but will continue in the hope that a more successful means will be found for keeping it in place !!

Hope this honest review helps anyone trying to decide what to do.

Was not sure if it would make a difference but after about two weeks I started to notice a change in my eyesight, for the better. I have been using the Notura 400 for just over 2 months now and can say it has been a great benefit to my eye health and less bleeding, Fantastic

Jury is still out on this piece of kit.

The tech is clearly leaps ahead of others, but the comfort and the suitability, not so much. I find this slips off my head every night, and if I'm getting anywhere near 50% of the use intended, I'll be surprised.

The comfort of the strap is very poor, and undesired. Needs better comfort and ease of use to actually stay on.

I believe it is a valuable enhancement for helping with eye/vision issues, but a annual cost of around £960 is an expensive item,
It should be available throughout the NHS.
Being a diabetic I could see and feel differences with my eyeshight

I’ve been a T1 diabetic for nearly 50 years and have had background retinopathy for probably the best part of 10 years. I’ve been using the eye mask for over 5 years and my background retinopathy (thankfully) has remained stable with no progression or treatment required. I’m hopeful by continuing to wear the eye mask it will stay this way.
The eye mask is comfortable to wear and I get good quality sleep whilst wearing it.
The service offered by Noctura is excellent, very helpful and efficient.

I've only been using Noctura for about 2 months so far and have been achieving amazing results. For some background, I have PDR and DMO and had a very rapid deterioration in my eyesight after dropping my A1C too fast in a year. This lead to a vitreous hemorrhage and I started eye injections at the same time I started using Noctura. Nurses have been shocked at just how fast things have been improving and have remarked that it's very unusual to see such quick changes. I have no doubt in my mind that using Noctura has helped facilitate these rapid results. The mask takes a little getting used to but now it feels strange to get into bed without it! There are studies backing the mask, and of course, it has been developed with NHS funding so you can be assured this isn't some kind of magic beans type product. Maryam has been so helpful in my journey with Noctura and is happy to answer any questions I have, no matter how silly they might seem. She has also gone above and beyond working with another member of the team to try and secure OCT scans with my local Specsavers as I can't travel. If you're suffering from diabetic eye disease and are able to afford this wonderful, non-invasive treatment I would absolutely recommend it. It's fantastic and life changing! Thank you to everyone at Polyphotonix!

I've been using Noctura 400 every night for 5 years and plan to continue indefinitely! It's an easy adjustment and I love knowing something so evidence-based is also so approachable and easy to incorporate into my life. My PDR is stable, in no small part due to this life-changing technology. Thank you Polyphotonix and all the helpful staff. May the treatment grow in usage!

This mask has completely slowed down the progression of diabetic retinopathy and macular degeneration thus enabling me to have a better quality of life and independent living.

Very effective Thank you

I have used the Noctura mask for several years now for Type 2 Diabetes macular oedema. It has meant my eye condition has remained stable and I have not required any other treatment. The mask is easy to use and comfortable to wear. The team at Polyphotonix have always been supportive and helpful, regularly making contact to ensure I have no problems.I would thoroughly recommend the use of this mask if given the opportunity to have one.

i have had this mask for over 5 years and can say it has improved my eyesight and helped control my diabetes . i can recommend it to anyone who has problems with diabetes and fluid at the back of their eyes as it helped me with mine. i was finding i couldnt see clearly at night when i was driving, but after wearing the mask for a few months my eyesight improved greatly. Also during lockdown i wasnt able to see anyone to get a diabetes check up but found the mask helped my situation, big thanks to Alison for all her help over the years.

I have been using the Noctura mask for several years to treat my diabetic retinopathy and I am very pleased to report that there has been no progression of the condition since. The company and its representatives have been very helpful. The mask is very comfortable and doesn’t disturb my sleep at all. Recommended
