Discover One of the Best Sleep Masks That Work for Light and Sound‍

A man unable to sleep with a pillow over his ears and light shining through the window. He is pondering the best sleep masks that work for light and sound.

Read this article to learn about your top option for the best sleep masks that work for light and sound. Plus, how light and sound affect sleep quality.


You know how getting a good night’s sleep feels the next day, right? You feel energized and ready to take on whatever the day throws at you.


Meanwhile, a poor night's sleep can make you feel grumpy, lethargic and unable to focus. And two of the biggest sleep disruptors are light and sound.


If you haven’t been sleeping well, there are a couple of ways to address the problem. Apart from lifestyle changes and natural sleep aids, consider sleep accessories. Particularly, the best sleep masks that work for light and sound.


More on that later on. But first, let’s take a look at what you’ll learn by reading this article.

Why Good Sleep Quality Matters

We can't overstate the importance of good sleep quality enough. As you catch zzzs, your body is hard at work storing info you learned that day. It also helps remove the toxins from your brain and repairs tissues.


In short, good sleep quality supports healthy brain and body functions. But, sleep deprivation leaves you at risk of chronic health problems. Think heart disease, diabetes, and stroke.


It also has a negative impact on your thinking, learning, and problem-solving skills. A lack of sleep can also have a long-term impact on your mental health. It's linked to various mental health disorders like depression and anxiety.


Right about now, we know you understand that good sleep isn’t a luxury. It’s a necessity. Now let’s move on to exploring the biggest sleep disruptors: light and sound.

How Light and Sound Affect Sleep Quality

We’re pretty sure you’re familiar with one or more of the following scenarios:


  • Tossing and turning because of the annoying streetlight shining through your window

  • Being unable to drift off because of the traffic sounds outside

  • Your mobile phone’s glare and notification sounds, waking you up just as you’ve drifted off


We could go on and on, but we know you get the picture.


Now here’s the deal. When your eyes see light they tell your brain that it’s time to be alert. Meanwhile, darkness tells your body it's time to unwind and prep for bed. Plus, it also tells your body to start making melatonin, the sleep hormone.


Now let’s explore sound and its relation to sleep. Loud noises can wake you up from your sleep. This, in turn, increases the time you spend in the lighter sleep stages. And lessens the time you spend in deep sleep.


Light and sound can have a negative influence on how long and well you sleep. And as we mentioned earlier, this can lead to sleep deprivation. You already know that this may lead to serious health issues.


And that’s why anything that can help block out light and sound while you sleep is a game changer. Enter the best sleep masks that work for light and sound.

White Noise: How It Helps with Sleep

But before we explore these sleep masks, you need to know there’s a certain type of sound that may help you sleep better. It's called white noise. According to Sleep Foundation, it's a mix of all frequencies of sound heard by the human ear(1).


Examples of white noise include:


  • The whirring of an electric fan

  • TV static

  • A running vacuum

  • An air conditioner’s hum


White noise masks disruptive sounds from inside and outside your bedroom.


Apart from these examples, you can listen to white noise through a white noise machine. You can also download sleep apps through your device. And pair it with a Bluetooth sleep mask with headphones.


(We just dropped a hint on the best sleep masks that work for light and sound. So, keep reading to find out more.)

How Sleep Masks Help You Get Better Shuteye

Sleep masks or eye masks are accessories that cover the eyes to block out light. They're usually made of fabric. And they’re held in place by an elastic band that goes around your head.


But not all sleep masks are equal. Most sleep masks just block out light. Others also have features to mask sounds that disrupt sleep. And this is what makes them the best sleep masks that work for light and sound.

What are the benefits of a good sleep mask?

Wearing an excellent sleep mask creates a pitch-black environment. And complete darkness is ideal for good sleep. Remember that darkness tells your body it's time to settle down.


And it also signals your brain to produce melatonin, a hormone that regulates sleep. The result? You drift off faster and stay asleep longer. And choosing a sleep mask that also masks sound puts you up for a double win.


These masks usually have built-in speakers that go over your ears. You can listen to white noise to mask unwanted sounds. And even listen to soothing music to help you relax before bed — helpful when you suffer from anxiety.

What to Consider When Buying a Sleep Mask That Works for Light and Sound

When it comes to choosing a sleep mask, keep these in mind:


  • The mask should block out light by 100%.

  • Go for contoured sleep masks or ones with eye cups to prevent light leakage and direct pressure on the eyes.

  • Make sure the sleep mask has thin speakers to prevent discomfort when you sleep on your side

  • Look for one that’s made from breathable, comfy and high-quality materials.

  • Look for a mask that’s fully adjustable for a custom fit.

  • Look for a mask that’s washable as you wear it next to your skin.

Our Top Sleep Mask That Works for Light and Sound

So, now you know how to choose from the best sleep masks that work for light and sound. Allow us to introduce you to our version, Manta SOUND Sleep Mask.

Manta SOUND Sleep Mask

A black Bluetooth sleep mask that works for light and sound.
SEEK THE SOUND MASK

We designed this 100% blackout sleep mask for all sleeping positions. It has an adjustable 2-layer head strap with a 100% machine-washable inner layer.


It pairs with any Bluetooth-compatible device. This lets you listen to white noise or soothing sleep music in complete darkness.

Two speakers with blue tabs and sleep mask that works for light and sound around a head.

Adjustable Bluetooth headphones are housed within the head strap. Pull on the blue tabs to move them backward or forward, according to your preference. They’re also razor-thin to minimize bulk on the sides of your head.

A black mesh Bluetooth sleep mask that works for light and sound. The text reads 20 hours plus battery life.

We made the head strap with breathable materials so you get maximum ventilation. The power and volume buttons are at the front of the mask for easy access. Plus, its battery life lasts for over 20 hours.

A deconstructed view of perforated C-shaped eye cups for the best sleep masks that work for light and sound. Air is coming out of the perforations.

The C-shaped eye cups taper near your temples for side sleeping comfort. Each cup has a smart air bubble that expands and compresses as you switch sides. We also designed the cups with perforated materials for ventilation.

The great thing about this mask is it completely covers your ears. And while it's not a noise-canceling device, it muffles sound even when you’re not using the headphones.


Now let’s move on to what customers have to say, so you can make an informed decision.

Great Investment

“I’m a night shift worker and have Ménière’s disease so I have a very difficult time going to sleep. After seeing an ad, I skeptically ordered one, not really expecting to find it useful. I was so wrong! I now look forward to bed after my shift. The total blackout and the ability to use Bluetooth to help alleviate the roaring sound in my ear is a game changer for me. I now am able to get a better “nights” sleep now. This is one of the best investments I’ve made. Thank you!”

— Scott

“Have had it for about a week now, and it is absolutely one of the best investments I’ve ever made. I said that about my original manta sleep mask, but this one with the Bluetooth speakers takes the cake. Absolutely perfect! Comfortable, sound is amazing (I like to listen to audiobooks as I go to sleep) and just all around easy to use. Would highly recommend.”

— David Jonathan B.

“Received this as an early birthday present. I am in love. I use binaural sleep sounds to combat a sleeping disorder but earphones either fall out or are uncomfortable. This mask is perfect. Hardly noticeable when on and no ear discomfort with the added bonus of total darkness. It is a little expensive but…worth it for me. Thank the dev who thought this up, they are a genius.”

— Anonymous

“I bought this and couldn't be happier! I play the Calm app through it and now I truly go to sleep and wake up in the morning in one fell swoop, no interruptions! I wake up not wanting to take it off! Well constructed, easy to adjust and very soft, as it should be. No problem with side sleeping nor with movement. You have done an incredible job. 💪💪💪 It's like I'll be forever indebted to you. 🙌🙌🙌🙏🙏🙏”

— Yubalucci M.

“Unbelievable. It's simply…tear-inducing how restful my sleep has become with this system. NOT just a mask, a SYSTEM. I bought the Manta Sleep Mask SOUND and I'm just wondering where you've been all my life. I listen to CALM and TEN PERCENT HAPPIER through this wonderful SYSTEM and it's game-changing. Before, my phone would have to be near me, or on the bedside table, and the sound was either distant or too loud for the others in the house. This helps the sound be at the right level and not disturb anyone else. It also means that my phone can be far away from me while I'm sleeping. I've had people ask me if it is bulky in terms of side sleeping. Let me say a firm, NO. They lay flat against my head and do not poke or feel like an impediment to my sleep, whereas headphones or earbuds left me SORE. I am excited to try the COOL eye cups and hope to upgrade one day to STEAM and to also get some Aroma dots. So, thank you. Thank you for existing! And for taking sleep seriously.”

— Mary D.
