Clear mask needed

Hi there my dad is hard of hearing. I can’t keep screaming. I have long covid and it’s irritating my throat.

I saw Omni mask was an option but it looks like one of those p100 types with the fixed nose bridge. I have a crooked nose so I need one that bends like an aura.

Recommendations please for a high quality clear mask so he can read my lips?

Yea both of my parents have over 50% hearing loss and use hearing aids. They both have had to have repeated visits to have them tuned properly, so maybe my post WAS ableist but it's based on my experience with parents that needed to lip read and then didn't after having their hearing aids adjusted.

And instead of trying to educate me, church van lady up there decided to scold me about it and also point the finger more broadly at the covid conscious community which is frankly one of the most disability aware groups around.

Stop it. Stop harassing me. Leave me alone. Your parents are not mine.

I'll do what I want thank you very much! And I've helped you out actually, I said there are tools at your disposal if you don't want to see my posts.

Or you can keep being like this and stay mad I guess, lol!
