Flat vs Curved Snorkel Masks

What's the difference in flat front vs round front snorkel masks? There is some distortion around the edges of the flat front masks. Get a full face snorkel here: Seaview 180: http://amzn.to/2usyP8r Vaincre 180: http://amzn.to/2tjZXXa
We went with flat ones and love them, don't notice any distortion on the sides.

Snorkeling masks should always be flat...just like any underwater case for your camera.
If you are able to equalize ear pressure without hand, then the limit is the breath you can hold. If you can't then its the pressure your eardrums can take (or how much pain you can take from them).

please reply
Also probably the same reason there are no goggles out there with a round face in the first place....
I find there is some slight distortion on the curved when not looking directly in front but is still great for visibility
All in all very happy with the masks
