I haven't received the Eakin stoma wraps yet to try, but I got the large Eakin barrier rings to try. Here's a picture to compare sizes of the large Eakin barrier ring and my normal Hollister one. So, I used my stoma measurer paper and cut a barrier ring from the large Eakin one so it would fit around my stoma (44mm) without stretching it. I just put it on, so time will tell how well it works, but it was very nice to not have to stretch the barrier ring a bunch to apply it to my bag. I just laid it on and pressed it down, no stretching. We'll see how it works. &zwj
