Eye masks may help improve sleep quality and reduce pain after cardiac surgery, study finds.

ICUs are noisy and bright places, which can make it hard to sleep. Sleep is important for healing, so researchers studied whether eye masks could help ICU patients after cardiac surgery.

They found that patients who used eye masks had better sleep quality and less pain than those who didn't. Eye masks are a simple and affordable way to improve comfort and recovery after cardiac surgery.
