A subjective test was done on twenty four consecutive patients using the pillow during the months of June 2006 through September 2006. All twenty four patients were female. The age range was from 21-67 years of age. The average age range was 50.2 years. All patients in the trial were side sleepers.

The pillow was used for two consecutive weeks and the patients were asked to grade the improvement of compression wrinkles on a scale of 0, 25%, 50%, or 100%.

Twenty-four patients participated in the study. Four of those patients had Floppy Eyelid Syndrome, a condition which causes laxity of the eyelid and corneal irritation, tearing and inflammation from sleeping on the eye area. These four patients who used the pillow reported 100% improvement after two weeks. .
The remaining twenty patients had compression wrinkles. Of these twenty patients, 90% patients reported a decrease in their compression wrinkles. Three patients reported a 25% decrease in their wrinkles, two patients reported a 50% decrease in their wrinkles, and 13 patients of twenty reported a 75% or better improvement in their compression wrinkles.
