Abstract

A nasal adapter and relatively fixed tube in which the inserts penetrate the nostrils, and a fixed tube diverts the inhaled and exhaled air laterally at a generally 90.degree. angle to the angle of breathing out of the nostrils is disclosed. The invention looks to combining such an adapter with a mask in which the mask has a slit on one side in order to receive the pipe which is directed from the adapter and physically support the same along with the adapter and the nostrils to a comfortable position and insuring that the exhaling will be to the exterior of the mask. The method of the present invention looks to the steps of inserting a nasal adapter into the nostrils, diverting the air laterally from the breather, and encapsulating the head portion of the person wearing the nasal adapter in a cover or mask from which the eyeglasses of the wearer are permitted to view outside the mask.
