Must-Have for the Plane Ride

They say it's not the destination that's important—it's the journey. But come vacation time, that journey often involves a noisy plane ride! There's always that one napping person who has a snoring problem. Or the person sitting next to you brought along a portable DVD player but forgot to bring the headphones along with it. Maybe the teenager sitting a few seats down is practicing karaoke with his iPod music. And for some reason, someone else's screaming baby always seems louder than your own! Now there's an economical and healthy way to alleviate the stress of un-peaceful air-travel!

Cirrus Healthcare has added another significant development in ear care to their product line. BioEars is the first soft silicone earplug manufactured by Cirrus. In addition to being a remarkable noise-reducer, BioEars is the first and only to contain an antimicrobial agent, which fights the growth of microbes such as bacteria. Due to the necessary contact that comes with soft silicone prior to placing them in the ear, contamination and the transfer of microbes are probable. The antimicrobial agent found in BioEars inhibits the growth of these microbes, helping to prevent common ailments like Swimmer's Ear.
