Face Down Pillow After Eye Surgery, Adjustable Height Prone Prone Pillow Face Down Sleep, Retina Lying Pillow, Vitrectomy Macular Hole Retinal Detachment Recovery Equipment Eye Surgery Support

I ordered this pillow 2 weeks before a vitrectomy surgery on June 17. I let it air out, and fluff up. It was perfect to use in bed and on the kitchen table to keep face down following my surgery. The hole was big enough, that I didn't feel smothered, and the arm allowed it to be propped up for easy adjustments if I was sleeping, or sitting. I was worried about having to stay face down for 5 days and not feel smothered, but this pillow worked perfectly for me.

The pillow came with stains on it, obviously a used product. As this is a medical device, it is of concern it has been used previously, but being sold as new. Secondly, the support mechanism does not work, one side collapses when using it, the other side is so hard to adjust that it takes 3 hands to adjust it.

This Face Down Pillow used for Eye Surgery Recovery worked. Somewhat comfortable and met needs to use face down for 5 days 24/7, when using on table top I turned the pillow around and the metal bar height adjuster flat position which placed my head in the correct position (think of your head having a leveler tool bubble) For anyone to lay face down for X number of days with only a 15 minute break every hour is a challenge & MUST DO so for the surgery to be a success! FYI: I had to do this twice, surgery in second eye after 3 weeks following my first eye surgery. I used in the correct position (not turned around) while laying on my stomach in bed. I used another Face down pillow Amazon stock (ASIN#) B0B82WBSXD to lay face down in the back seat of my vehicle for the 2 hour drive home from the surgery center and on follow up doctor visit drives, much shorter distance. This pillow worked well no metal frame so fix back seat and lap https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0B82WBSXD/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_search_asin_image?ie=UTF8&psc=1 recommend both products.

This item works good. They need to remedy the locking latch because the pillow falls. It never stays at the level I want it. I’m 120lb so it’s not me, it’s the mediocre locking height mechanism.

This thing was such a lifesaver when the doctor told me I needed to keep my face down CONSTANTLY and I needed to sleep. Trying to actually sleep was still difficult for me as a side-sleeper, but I was able to breathe! It held up well and the adjustments are nice, I had it up a little higher when i wanted to watch something on my phone and then lower when trying to rest. Didn't notice any odd smells, seemed fine and dandy to me!

Nice soft material. It helped my wife keep her head down for the recovery. Reduced neck strain well. However, we found it would collapse down on one side if used laying in the bed. It would not collapse as much when sitting at the table. .

Very comfortable and great quality with just enouph fluff to be comfortable.

This pillow came and has clearly already been used. Gross to receive something that someone else has rested on. Looks like it was set on something like paper as there is residue and sticky stuff still on the bar despite it not coming with a tag or label that would explain the sticky residue. It also has a strong perfume smell like from a woman’s perfume that is overwhelming.
