If you need almost total darkness to get a night of undisturbed sleep, the longer days and lighter evenings of summer can wreak havoc on your sleep patterns. 

If your sleep is suffering this summer, then an eye mask that promises to block out 100 per cent of light could be a godsend. And shoppers have found a winner, swearing by the OriHea Sleep Mask.

Close to 4,000 tired Amazon shoppers have awarded the blackout eye mask a perfect five-star review, claiming it 'completely blocks the light out' and is 'so soft' they 'hardly notice it'. One shopper raved how they 'sleep like a baby when wearing this'. Better still, the popular mask is now on sale for better-than-half-price, now just £8.49.

Summer is great in so many ways, but it can spell disaster for nodding off at night. When it gets dark, the body produces the hormone melatonin, signalling our brain to make us sleepy. 

So in the summer, when the days get longer, the natural stimulus is delayed, keeping us awake for longer.

One solution to this problem is a blackout eye mask, like this bestseller from OriHea. A bedtime game-changer in the summer months, it blocks out 100 per cent of light, creating a dark rest zone that helps you nod of quicker and sleep deeper. It's no wonder why close to 4,000 shoppers have left rave reviews. 

The manufacturers say the OriHea Sleep Mask is so successful thanks to its ability to achieve total darkness combined with the supremely comfortable 3D design. 

Thanks to the deeper eye cup design, it doesn't touch your eyes or eyelids, so there's no pressure like you get with regular eye masks. Not only is this far more comfortable, but it's very handy for when you want to preserve your eye-makeup when taking a quick nap.

The blackout eye mask also ticks more boxes thanks to the premium memory foam with a soft silk lining, which shoppers says makes a huge difference in comfort. 

The Velcro strap means it's adjustable, so it's suitable for all head sizes and doesn't have any annoying buckles, which is great for back and side sleepers.

While blackout blinds or curtains can be unsightly, expensive, and a hassle to put up, the OriHea Sleep Mask does the same thing for a fraction of the effort and price. And according to thousands of glowing reviews, it works.

'Perfect night sleep' raved one five-star review. 'I wake early due to my room being so light, I wore this the first night and woke when I was ready not when the sun rose! Comfy and does the job perfectly.'

Another agreed, adding: 'No more waking up at 5 am. Very good quality and comfortable to wear. Helps me to sleep longer with lighter mornings.'

A third penned: 'This eye mask is absolutely fabulous. It is very comfortable and completely blacks out any light. It's easily adjustable and is very well-made. 

'In the past I've put a mask on as dawn breaks as even with blackout curtains our bedroom lets in a lot of light. With this eye mask I sleep in it all night!'.
