I am an experienced (mature) diver with a recent ear problem. My right ear drum has all but disappeared, from an infection. The doc says he will patch it if I can keep it dry for 3 months. I tried a 1st Proear dive mask with ear cups, but it sometimes lets in water and it doesn't work well with a hood or with a snorkel attached. Also the tubes tend to pull off easily. I was thinking about using an ear plug, with a hood. Vented plugs are suggested for diving, but they let in water. The ear is naturally equalized with no ear drum, so I think I could use a non-vented ear plug. Does anyone have any experience to help?
