OK, I have this situation with my mask. Maybe it is with my nose. I broke it a few years back, and never had it set. Now, I am having trouble finding a mask that doesn't press against the bridge. If I have it loose enough not to touch my nose, it leaks. If I make it stop leaking, it hurts my nose. Anyone have experience with a mask that has a higher bridge? I have to get something new..... Help.

Masks come in all shapes, sizes & volumes.
Don't give up.
All you can do is keep going into shops that have a good selection from various manufacturers.
The ideal would be to visit some large dive show where there may be hundreds of types on show.
And in the worst case you could try a FFM Full Face Mask.

This one may be a bit far off

but Googling for "Dive show" together with the state you want generally brings up a few hits.
I have the same problem with masks as you... but for a different reason - BGN (Big Greek Nose).
I tried just about every mask out there. I visited dozens of dive shops and tried everything.
Bottom line...... there's nothing out there for BGN.
I use a Scubapro frameless mask now. Still hurts the bridge of my nose, but it's the most comfortable mask I've found.
