Also, I'm not too worried about my eyes as I can sleep quite readily on any flight. Eyes shut= should be good. Right?

The other reason I keep this mask is for actual emergencies - in the event of smoke, fire, noxious fumes, etc., this mask could be the difference between evacuating alive or......

It's something everyone should have in their carry-on.
