A device for adjusting the humidity level of a pressurized fluid exposed to a patient's eye is an enclosure for the patient's eye to define a cavity when placed over the patient's eye. Pressurized, with an enclosure sized and shaped to fit, and a pressure source configured to control the level of fluid pressurized in the cavity to the fluid pressure level of a particular non-ambient environment. Means for adjusting the humidity level of a fluid, including means configured to control the humidity level to a particular humidity level at a fluid pressure level in a particular non-ambient environment.
