Philips Respironics Amara View Full Face CPAP Mask Frame without Headgear
The Philips Respironics Amara View has a unique under-the-nose design, reducing red marks and skin irritation. The Amara View covers less of your face, making it easier to wear glasses, read, and watch TV before falling asleep.



Philips Respironics Amara View Full Face CPAP Mask Frame without Headgear Overview
The Amara View mask by Respironics has an incredible under-the-nose design, making it one of the only full face mask frames that won’t cause red marks on the bridge of your nose in comparison to other masks. The Amara View covers less of your face, making it easier to wear glasses, read, and watch TV before falling asleep.
In September 2022 Philips Respironics voluntarily recalled this CPAP mask. After further evaluation by Philips Respironics, these masks were declared safe for continued use, according to the updated instructions and labeling if patients or people in close proximity to them do not have implanted metallic medical devices or metallic objects in the body. If you have any questions regarding this mask, please reach out to the manufacturer, Philips Respironics, directly for more information.
-
Open Vision Design - This design offers a wide range of visibility. This full face mask is controlled by the strong seal created around the base of the nose and mouth, with additional support provided by headgear extending from the front of the mask to the crown of the head. Unlike other full face masks, it does not need a forehead support to steady the mask.
-
Under the Nose Cushion - A rectangular hole is found at the top of the full face cushion. This nostril opening is intended to allow the necessary pressure into the nostrils without irritating the nose. Gently glide your nose over the nostril opening to find the intended fit. Please Note: The user must keep their nose above the nostril opening, not letting it fall through the crevice. CPAP therapy is impaired when the nose is not securely placed over the opening.
-
Lightweight Materials - Furthering the minimalistic design, the Amara View Full Face CPAP Mask is composed of lightweight materials. The soft, silicone full face cushion snaps into a lightweight frame, which covers only the nostrils and mouth. The frame and full face cushion do not extend past the base of the nose, relieving the user from bearing the weight of the mask on the bridge of their nose.
-
Universal Size Mask Frame - The Amara View Full Face Mask features a universal mask frame. This is a convenience feature which allows the user to easily replace the compatible cushions when needed. The Amara View Full Face cushions in size small, medium, and large are compatible with this mask frame. If the time has come to replace your cushion, make the selection without re-purchasing the entire mask. Simply find the Amara View full face cushion, select the correct size, and replace.
-
Short Tube with Elbow and Swivel - Respironics designed a short tube for the Amara View Full Face Mask. The tube extends from the front of the mask frame and connects to the cuff of the CPAP hose. Attach the built-in elbow to the mask frame and secure the swivel to the cuff of the CPAP hose. The flexible tubing moves freely with the motion of the user, giving the user more mobility. The 360 degree motion provided by the swivel causes less of a pull on the CPAP hose and increases the user's chance of maintaining a strong seal throughout the night.
