Watch TV Facedown? Yes, You Can with 2-Way Mirror

Recovering from vitrectomy including Macular hole and Retinal Detachment surgery often means staying facedown for days or even weeks. One of the most common questions we hear is:

"How am I supposed to watch TV during this whole time?"

We get it. Being facedown can feel isolating, boring, and claustrophobic. That’s why we offer a simple but game-changing solution:

This special mirror lets you watch your TV while keeping the doctor-ordered facedown position. It’s one of the most popular add-ons for our recovery equipment rentals.

 

Why is this mirror important? 

  • Reflects the TV screen up to your eyes while you're in a facedown position

  • Works with a Facedown Chair, Facedown Bed, or both

  • Helps reduce boredom, anxiety, and the feeling of isolation

  • A must-have tool for anyone recovering from retina surgery

  • Pairs perfectly with our vitrectomy face down recovery equipment rentals

⚠️ Mirror Setup Tips (Read This!)

  • Works best when your TV is at a comfortable height and distance
