Has anyone tried these. Every flymask I have tried on my mare touches her eye lashes so she squints all the time...the vet has recommended that she wear one most of the time as her skin pigmentation is prone to skin cancer around the eye.
This mask looks great but I'm a bit worried that there is a wire running through it so close to the eyes. Just wondering on your thoughts.

Yes, I've been using those for a few years now. I like them for the most part, but the hoop that holds the mask away from the face often pokes out through the fabric at the end. I have a few like that now that I need to repair. There are two closures, one double velcro, and the other goes through a plastic piece and velcros back on itself, so they tend to be harder to get off, which was helpful when Obie and his buddy used to play the fly mask yanking game.

Do you take it on and off each day? Only saying as my trainer had one of these on one of her retirees, and he had it on for a few days straight without taking it off. He got a horrible sore from it, they are fairly stiff. Granted, it is her mistake to not take it on and off each day, but it still should not rub like that.

I would be taking it off at dusk. I am a bit nervous of that wire...would hate to poke it in an eye..but it is the only flymask I've seen that stays away from the eyes enough.

I ordered one in horse size , it is huge...will be ordering another in Cob size and hope it fits, it's a nice mask.

The mask covers her entire head!

Is that the cob size in the photo?!?! Apparently they DO run large!

Oh yeah, they are big. My 17H guy fits perfectly in the Horse size; it's a little too big for my 16H warmblood. I don't leave the nose piece on.

Sunshine2Me...that is the horse size....I am toying with whether or not to get cob or pony
