Went to several eye specialists and left with no knowledge on my problem or how to fix it…. Thank you for actually educating and sharing knowledge… I haven’t lost ALL faith in the medical industry
-
Massage starts at 2:50 Before doing the massage, 1. Perform Warm Compress to warm up the oil glands 2. Wash your hands to prevent infecting your eye
-
Out of this 7min video I got a real solution to my dry eye problem. Better than the appointment with the eye doc who told me to use eye drops multiple times a day which only combats the symptoms not the cause. Thank you. You got yourself a subscriber.
-
Ive seen 4 walkin doctors 2 optometrist and 1 optomologist and got basically nowhere....i tried this simple procedure snd i feel better already.....much appreciated
-
Anyone else watching this video with one eye closed? 😜
-
This is unbelievably helpful. Proper explanation and actually doing what you are teaching (others just “pretend” to massage the eyelid). Very hepful
-
After trying warm compress and months of Restasis dry eye drops, Dr. Allen’s seven minute video on massage (which none of my providers have ever mentioned) has given my eyes a glimmer of good-feeling and relief. Dr. Allen is a well-made man. I bet he and his staff make an eye•xellent team. 👓
-
That eye massage actually works wonders! Using for chronic allergic conjunctivitis.
-
I love this - my eyes always feel immediately "cooler" when I do this - you can feel the oil being released and it's HEAVEN!!!
-
doing this for dry eye! Thanks for the detailed, visual tutorial!
-
I'm dealing with advanced eye dryness. Even though I went every year to my eye doctor, my problem wasn't caught early. I am now seeing an eye doctor who is treating me a lot as you are recommending but I am also picking up some very good tips from you. Thank you so very much! God Bless You.
-
This is a great video. My wife was recently diagnosed with Meibomian Gland Dysfunction and the optometrist recommended performing this massage explained in the video. The video is excellent and provides a great narration with the hands-on massage demonstrated and explained. Thank you! This was super helpful.
-
Thank you. Your videos are absolutely essential to us. Please don’t give up on your followers. Thanks again.
-
Thank you! I just used your method for an eye massage for a sty and it worked! I have been suffering this for over a week, used prescription salve and it took your video to 'open' the sty! God bless you! ☺
-
I have extremely dry eyes to the point of tearing. The doctor told me to add this to my preventative routine.
-
He starts the massage at 2:52
-
The eye compress works for me and now I’ll try the massage.
-
This has to be the best explained video for styles! I can’t believe this worked in 24 hours! Just watched this yesterday, saw other people’s comments and gave it a try. It’s already starting to drain. Thank you so much! I heard of doing an eyelid massage but didn’t do it properly, and my eye became even more swollen- 4 days before Christmas 😂. Also thanks for the heads up about pressure. I get these a lot and wasn’t thinking about applying too much pressure.
-
Scared to do this because I'm heavy handed (might over massage) but I'm glad that I finally did it tonight. My eyeballs glide easily, no blurring of the vision too - instant relief ♥️. Thank you! Will do this everyday.
