Very interesting. When I changed my diet after a mild heart attack, my annual eye exams continuously showed improvement requiring a new script. Kiddingly, I told my ophthalmologist that it must be the carrots, and he said it was more likely the spinach. Thanks for this great information!

Never knew eyelashes did anything except shade our eyes. They have a much more important job than that.

Since watching your channel I've already started wearing sunglasses more often and doing a warm compression almost every night (I have dry eyes). I might be imagining things but my eyes do feel better and safer. So thank you for that! I would definitely like to see a video on nutrition for eye health.

I, 59 had dry eyes for years. After cleaning the eyelashes on a daily basis, my dryeye syndorm vanished. Save a lot of money now.

I like the fact that dark green leafy vegetables are good for the eyes. I love salads and all vegetables. So that is a plus since I eat plenty of them. Found the sunlight protection helpful as well as keeping my eyelids clean, which I do. Thanks for the great videos and handsome smiles. 😎

I really enjoy salads and green beans etc. I lived close to the ocean in Southern California and learned about the value of sunglasses at all times. What I hadn’t appreciated was even with removing my eye makeup I need to do a better job of it. Thank you Doctor 👍

You're welcome! Thanks, Susan. I'm glad you're taking care of your eyes. Here's a video I did on washing the eyelashes that you might find helpful: kzread.info/dash/bejne/c5Vp0rN_eqaziZs.html

I got freaked out when you were cleaning your eyes. Generally, because I have mutated mucous membranes I tend to brush my teeth carefully, but enjoyably, avoiding another oral cancer scare. It took me a while to get used to it. Using that device with the brush on the end on your eye reminded me of teeth-brushing, so I just want to say I think you definitely need to only clean your eye slowly, and enjoyably if possible. That's my theory for not accidentally hurting myself further anyhow. Also, more nutritional science will be much appreciated in future, thanks Dr. Allen!

I already cleanse my lids and lashes and wear sunglasses so I loved your tip for eating more leafy greens! I’ve been a little slack in making my green smoothies in my Vitamix blender. Time to start blending again!🤗

I really want to improve my eyesight. Specs are making it only worse, i thought specs will improve but it's not. So I'm gonna yse these tips from now on and wait to remove my glasses completely. Thanks a lot Doctor. I'm gonna keep you as my personal eye doctor🥰

Great tips! Cleaning eye lid is a surprise for me and will improve my eye hygiene alert a lot on those eyelashes dirt. Thanks, you are very good eye 👀 specialist! Learn a lot from your channel than other scary one.

Thanks Dr for all your advice. The entire video was very helpful. I do clean my eyelids everyday and this has helped me a lot.

Great video Doc. I had always believed that carrots are really good for your eye health until now. Never thought about the leafy greens though. And with number 3, even though I do wash my eyes regularly just with water throughout the day because I don't like getting dust or stuff in them, I didn't think about the other methods you spoke about. I'll keep an eye out for them! Cheers.

I really like the Myboclean Brush and gel to keep my eyelashes clean. I wake up sometimes with crusty eyelashes and if I don't clean them in the morning, I'll get irritation all day. The brush just cleans it all away within seconds and the gel is so soothing.

I'm using a eyelid wash that that the eye doctor recommended and you confirmed. I have puffy eye bags all of the sudden which I was told is inflammation from a sinus infection. I was told the inflammation stays in the body longer than the infection itself. But it seems to be really hanging in there and my vision is compromised. I will revisit some of your videos to see if this was addressed. Thank you for your kind service.

I am nearsighted and I recently saw an ad that popped up about a eye vision supplement. In the follow up video you mentioned can you please review the product Sight Care, its ingredients and if products like these are really too good to be true. Thanks in advance for being so informative.

Having a regular daily eyelid hygiene is very important! After PRK i got Blepharitis and since then i always have wipes for cleaning my eyelids.

My eyes have been hurting for last 7 months. At one point they were throbbing and felt really bruised. I have had an overnight huge increase in floaters, like a storm. No info on anterior floaters online. I know they're not vitreous floaters bc optometrist and dr. looked at them. It seems to just be the front half of my eyes, also when they hurt, they become very bloodshot and floaters become more pronounced. My sinuses right behind my nose hurts or feels inflamed in correlation to the eye pain. No mucus, no infection. Optometrist and Dr. Thought I was healthy, didn't see anything wrong with me. On the days I saw the Dr's, my eyes felt really good though. I've been putting off seeing the ophthalmologist bc I feel like he will not see anything wrong.

Doctor, is there any kind of imaging used in the eye to see the possible cause of eye discomfort? I’m 21 years old and my post COVID infection eyes so extremely dry now. My eye dilation exam looks unremarkable, but is there imaging I could request that would be even better?

@Akira-jd2zr

2 жыл бұрын

Dilation would do nothing to check for eye discomfort related to dry eyes. Some other types of testing could reveal severe dry eyes. For example, your doctor may "stain" your eyes with a certain eye drop and look at your cornea with the microscope to check for damage to your cornea. Also, other tests (Schirmer's strips) will reveal if you produce enough tears.

Love the tips!

Frequent breaks from your desk/work. Getting good movement and looking into the distance through a window or going for a walk is a good habit. For some people at high risk of eye diseases I have talked about blue light filtering glasses as a possible defense (evidence is mixed at this time). Monitoring for dry eye/MGD signs and symptoms are also important as many people don't blink enough when on digital devices.

I did not wanted lenses they put after cataract surgery which they proudly say blocking ultraviolet light and blue light. I. Know sunlight has beneficial effect specially morning and evening sun exercise. I don’t know my long term effect on blocking sun on eye 24 hours. Sun provide D , melatonin etc. But no choice now a day I cannot find replacement lenses without filter out sun rays. After some years , they will say new research says it was wrong to do. This research not reliable based on profit

My Question is - I'm a daily contact wearer person having uv filters in it( acuvue vita for astigmatism) . So do I have to wear a separate sunglasses while going outside.

I did a trip to North Carolina at 62 years old, and the more tropical plants caused more allergy problems.

I started at about - 0.5 in my early age and it was only growing all these years till now. But everyone says that - diopter is dropping towards older years, what isn't my case. So what do you think, why is that? (I'm wearing glasses last 10 years, but I was wearing contact lenses about 20 years). Thanks.

Hi, thank you for the great tips as always! I have a quick question about contact lenses. I have been using a standard hydrogel lens for years, and recently tried upgrading, so I decided to try Biotrue and Precision 1. I find that both, with the same prescription aren't quite as sharp as my old contacts for things far away. When I put one of each lens in my eyes I also find that my eyes switch between which one looks sharper from left to right eye when Biotrue and Precision 1 are in each eye. My question is, do eyes need time to adjust to the optical properties of new lenses? Or is it to to do with the size of the optical zone being bigger on my old lens maybe? I noticed I had this issue last year when trying a different brand of SiHy lenses Vs my old ones, but after three days of wearing the SiHy lenses my vision started to get sharper, but I always seem to find my old lenses are the sharpest. Main reason I wanted to upgrade is for end of day dryness which leads to blurred vision at night with my old lenses.
