The verdict
Buy the Manta Sleep Mask if you want the better overall package — it leads the RestScore 82 to 80 and is the stronger fit for true blackout without pressure.
Buy the SelectBlinds Custom Blackout Roller & Cellular Shades if its strengths match your bedroom — it's built for fixing the window instead of your face. Note that our pick is also the cheaper one to own over three years ($35 vs $44), which makes this one less of a dilemma than the stickers suggest.
Either way: both are comfort gear, not treatment. If the problem they're aimed at persists no matter what you buy, talk to a doctor.
