Thank you so much for the amazing year! We have accomplished a lot and I wholeheartedly appreciate all the support and love. Excited to share some of the projects we are working on and will be coming soon! Happy New year and I wish you nothing but the very best!
🎉happy new yrs🎉 Congratulations on the move and your partner❤ On a live video you mentioned you will update your dry eyes care routine video you made a few years back. Its due for an update. Tysm and god bless❤
Love wins!! Congrats doc ... you deserve it all. Hope the area you moved to is a safe area in uncertain times in the world and upcoming month Jan 2025.
First of all, I love that you've found love in your life...and have made it a priority. The fact that it comes with other things that can be viewed as positives makes it even better! As to gratitude, I'm *so* grateful that RUclips made it possible for me (and so many others) to discover you and the important information you continually share here. Sending love and positive energy to you for your newest venture, in business, and in life/love. ❤
You teach me everyday. Cured my dry eye. Cured my blepharitis. Gave me the tools (information) to change things. Fish oil. Tea tree oil eye wipes. Astigmatism and what it is. Your being here on this platform makes a difference. You have moved for a reason. God bless your new love and all the joy it will bring you. Thank you. A very happy new year to you.
Appreciate your efforts. At 71, I suffered a TIA after bleeding ulcers were diagnosed. Upon leaving the hospital after the ulcer repair, I immediately realized that something was amiss with my vision. Subsequent visits to my ophthalmologist, a retinal ophthalmologist and then a neuro-ophthalmologist the TIA was diagnosed to have affected both of my optic nerves. Long story short, I have lost about 50% of my peripheral vision and experience auras around the outer edges of both eyes. In 2023 I saw floaters in my left eye and after visiting the retinal ophthalmologist, she determined that I had a retinal tear that she treated with a freezing procedure (a second tear occurred 6 months later). Still later that year I had cataract surgery in both eyes, and then needed a laser procedure on both eyes to remove debris from the two surgeries. At this point, my vision has stabilized and I can see 20/20 in the right eye, with a bit less in the left. The auras and loss of peripheral vision remain and I use Refresh to help keep my eyes lubricated. I have a twin brother who has suffered two retinal detachments and my late mother-in-law lost her vision to MDA so I have worked hard to take care of my eyes. Your videos have been educational and helpful.
WOW. You have got the most amazing energy and compassion for life, it is amazing. I only came across your channel about two weeks ago. I kept wondering why you hadn't posted in that time and was just about to unsubscribe because I thought maybe you wasn't posting any longer. As soon as I was ready to do that, up popped your great smile. Thank you for all that you do. The world is a much better place because of people like you. 👍👍👍
Hey! Thanks for sharing this and I appreciate you subscribing! Thanks for hanging on a bit longer! Appreciate you, your comment and I wish you the best in the coming year! Let me know if there are any eye questions I can help with.
Congratulations on finding love, growth, and taking those challenges on and accomplishing! Wishing you a happy, healthy, and prosperous New Year! Looking forward to learn more about eye medicine.
Congratulations! I was so hopeful watching the little truck on the map when it reached Indiana, but then it passed through. If you were here, you'd be my doctor. All the best to you!
Congratulations on your new love and your new adventures (although as a Minnesotan I’m sad to learn that I could have seen you as an eye doctor)! Congratulations again and I hope 2025 is absolutely lovely for you!
Congrats! Wishing both of you a wonderful future as you grow together. You will find Central Virginia to be a warm and caring community. (And warmer winters 😆)
Best wishes in the New Year plus your new environment and new challenges. Congratulations! Welcome to the East coast as well! Thank you for sharing your informations.
Congratulations on finding love and moving to be closer! And congratulations on the success of the channel this year. Not gonna lie, I just moved across town and I’m still discombobulated, so I feel ya on the chaos of moving.
i use to watch your videos when i was caring for my mom and she was having eye issues - she passed away last yr and seeing you pop up again triggered those caregiving memories.
There's nothing like the excitement of the choice to move forward in life, to take a chance and begin a new adventure! Also, seriously looking forward to info about dealing with night driving glare. It's a huge problem in my little family, and any advice will be appreciated. Happy New Year🎉
Dr. Allen, You don't need to ask for forgiveness. Life happens and sometimes you have to make time for those life happens moments. All the best to you in your new location and the new love in your life. I'm looking forward to your continued content in the new year and always. Happy New Year!!
Even though I appreciate sharing the good news, there is absolutely nothing to apologize for. I am a fan of your work, whether you post monthly, or yearly. Best of wishes to you Dr. Allen! (also merry Christmas and happy new year)
I really appreciate that! Sometimes producing content can catch up on you but this has been a great time to take break and reflect on where we are going next. Should be a great year!
It sounds like Jackie and you already have a lot in common. Correct to say that the two of you see eye to eye,👀👀? Congratulations and best wishes for you and yours.
Awesome news! So happy for you with your new relationship. Plus you'll be warmer, and the ocean is right there. There's nothing like being at the ocean.
Dr Allen you are the best thing that has happened in vision care. I have been wearing glasses since I’m three so I know who is good and who’s not. You are highly qualified to receive all accolades. You are knowledgeable, kind, genuine and compassionate to us who have compromised vision. Thank you for being “you”. God bless you in your new relationship, nothing trumps love.
