Doc's ProPlugs (Pair) Clear, Vented - Medium

I have a problem when water gets in one ear. It can take a long time to dissipate. These help by minimizing the water but still allowing me to clear my ears.

I was worried that I wouldn't like using earplugs to surf but these earplugs are extremely comfortable and the vent works great - there is really no loss of hearing ability with these plugs in. Now that I've used them a few times, I can't imagine surfing without them. Not only am I protected long-term from surfers ear/swimmers ear but it's much more convenient because never have to clear you ears or shake your head to get water out of your ears. This seller is great, excellent service.

Another diver offered a pair of these to my wife on a recent dive trip in Belize. She has often had ear decompression issues going down, and the sensation of cold water in her ears was unpleasant. These totally solved the problem!You must be careful not to fiddle with these once they are in and you are in the water. That breaks the surface tension of the bubble they hold, and they won't work any more. Also, they are easy to lose as they can slip out on surfacing, unnoticed. It solves this to wear a head band covering the ears if you are not diving in a hood.With a bit of experience, these work great. If you like them, it's a good idea to have a spare pair or two.

I started diving about 2 yrs ago and began having issues with my left ear. I didn't have issues with equalizing while descending or ascending. The issue I had was problems with pain and fullness after the dives about a week later. This went on every trip I took. I was desperate to find a solution. Enter Doc's Pro Plugs-they gave me back pain free diving. I dive with no issues during the dive or afterwards. I have no issues with equalizing going down the line at all. I would never be without these ever. They are just great. I keep 2 pairs in my mask box so I will never be without them!

These ones done have the line to connect them.

Didn’t realized they were vented and I couldn’t return them.

DISCLAIMER: This is a review from someone who just hates getting waterlogged ears, so I can't speak to the viability of these for people with ear tubes.I've had these for about two months now, swimming 3-5 days a week. The vented pair do a great job of keeping water out of my ears, and I was able to do a few feet of diving with no problems. Definitely important to get the correct size (you can order sizing kits from their website online), but otherwise these work perfectly.

Had major issues with my ears from water entering while diving. I used these with a hood and I had no issues while diving and after diving. A little water did enter but not enough to cause problems. I will have a few back ups just in case! This is a must have item.
