dive mask

Subaquatic vision gear

A dive mask is a watertight mask worn underwater that covers the eyes and nose, creating an air pocket that allows clear vision beneath the surface.

Unlike swim goggles, which cover only the eyes, a dive mask encloses the nose so the wearer can equalize pressure at depth: She adjusted her dive mask before descending.
