I did not skip this ad. This is the kind of stuff I want to see on youtube, not UA-cam Red, not political garbage, not UA-cam's stupid propaganda. This is real, and it's worth watching.
Second that!
same, this is one of the few ads I watched all the way through and was glad I did.
fourth!
YES me as well its beautiful and very life changing :-)
Yes!!
This is what half of the UA-cam videos SHOULD be, heartwarming stories. This is what one man did with technology in 2019
What a wonderful story. Dwayne is a skilled technician, a wonderful father, and dedicated to helping people with his abilities. His beautiful daughter and his wife are brave, loving and trusting. The world needs more people like him. Stories like this give one hope for the world in the midst of ugliness.
I will watch "advertisements" like this all day long! Truly amazing what this dad has done for the love of his daughter. And the mother never questioned his passion. Such a strong family. To think he entered into a venture as foreign as this because of the trauma he felt when his daughter suffered at the hands of one "professional" should prompt us all to do what we can when it comes to our health and taking care of ourselves. No one will ever care for us as much as us! Gives me hope for humanity!

The internet is a wonderful place where people can learn about medical alternatives and communities for those who suffer the same thing they do. This is a beautiful story where one father shares the love he has for his daughter with others. Technology is amazing. Thank you for sharing this story Google.

And you would be successful soon!

This story touches my heart a bit, im blind in one eye from an accident when I was a year old, This man went beyond what most dads would do for their children, and if the man ever finds this video and reads the comments, then all my love man and thank you and your profession for making the prosthetic eyes or shells (This is what i've always called them) for people like your daughter and I.
Thank you for your kind comments.
at 12y/o my son was injured also and is now legally blind in one eye. i thank God his treatment didnt invole the horrible doctors out there. dr james martell in sacramento is an amazing man who initially treated my son for detached retina and with following his specific orders he healed the detached retina without surgery and dr said "he used one of his cat lives" on that fortunate event. he did have to have an artificial lens placed as a result of the scarring and damage and the surgeon was another very awesome eye specialist who understood what the future would be like for him. bless us all, our gifts will be known as they are needed. necessity being the mother of creation demands it love provides the drive. i love this dads' way of fixing the best possible for their beloved and others alike.
I am glad your son and you have had the best care as thats all is needed.

This advertisement really hit me. When I was four I suffered from the cancer retinoblastoma and I lost my right eye to it. I now have to have a prosthetic. The apointments for me were terrible as well. I had a verbally abusive ocular technition. I devoloped PTSD from these experience so young with all the doctors and hospitals and trauma. I am now over ten years free and clear. I was laying in bed with my fiance, and he turns music on UA-cam on before he goes to sleep. It Is two a.m. and I am having insomnia and I look up at the TV and see this add. Almost started crying immediately. This is so sweet
I am very sorry to hear what you have been through. I have just made two young girls with retinoblastoma eyes last week and it was an amazing experience making sure the parents were comfortable and that the girls were as happy as they could be with the whole situation. Knowing that we can make this part of there journey as stress free as possible is priceless.
bless you, may you find comfort from your experience and good health be yours. a specialist with bad manners is no good, shame on them
Thank you for sharing your stories. If only the rest of the medical society felt this way with their practices. I worked at National Industries for the Blind for a little while. It was inspiring to see what people could accomplish despite visual impairment.
Dwayne Collins you are amazing. Keep doing what you do

my sister's right eye can't see anything，her eye and right face became smaller and smaller，then she became very self-abasement，until the doctor put an artificial eye for her， she changes a lot ,she is very happy and confident~ thank for the technology very much~~
A fathers determination... in a world full of bad news and atrocities this is a breath of fresh oxygen. thank you for sharing. damn im in tears.
i got served this video as an ad on a video i actually chose to watch, and i can't believe i actually just sat through an entire 5 minute advertisement, but it was really just that good. this video is wonderful. this does more to advertise google as a company and youtube as a platform than any annoying 5 second spot ever could. valid, real, and not trying to get me to spend money i don't have on junk i don't need.
I am glad you watched it....
The father love to his daughter made me cry
Sorry lol.
This is probably the only UA-cam video I have ever watched that made me cry. Thank You Google
How dare people thumbs down this video of such courageously beautiful souls.. Shame on them
I met Dwayne today, he has a small maintenance business. Dwayne came to fix a few items in the new property I am leasing. His other business is making prosthetic eyes and after chatting about it he showed this video to me. What a marvelous human and wonderful father. Blessings brother :-)
As an optometrist, I understand the mental trauma of not having an eye. Not enough to just see a video, you have to follow through. Well done Dwayne and Google.
This was an amazing project to work on with such an amazing crew. If you are ever wanting a holiday in Australia and need a new eye, be sure to look me up i would love to help..

I loved it and I hope you will make more
This was fantastic! I always click off of pre-roll videos the second I'm able. This is maybe the second in my life that I watched all the way through while waiting to watch the video I came to UA-cam to watch. Incredible job of capturing the emotion of the story. Very inspiring!
This is one of the coolest things I've ever watched.
An absolutely amazing person and an incredible dad.
Thank you so much for the kind comments.

What can I say?? As a father I watched this with both love and fear. I understand the Passion. I understand the anger when confronted with heath care we consider sub-standard. More than most people, I understand the reasons behind "I can do this" "I am going to do this" "I must do this!" Go and get this done! :)
This is lovely or see - it will change the lives of so many.
Seriously?? Is this what humanity came up to?
Commenting "First"instead of admiring the people who are doing things that are for Humanity itself!
Think people.Think before you do stupid stuff and stop following the trail.
This IS the UA-cam comments section - as in, quite possibly the most vile corner of the Internet. The fact that the first comment on anything touching or beautiful was not race baiting vulgar hate language is a step forward for humanity. Don't set your goals too high, "first" is progress. :)
Michael Erickson Sure i see the positivity in you
But there are people ,i am not forcing them to do something. Although just think about all the things we have in our lives and still We "Humans" (yes i am including myself) are busy doing stupid waste stuff which won't lead anywhere.
I'm so glad I didn't skip this ad
No sé qué falta me hace falta para que me contaste
I love the world and all the man kind...love you
These are the advertisements that I live for. I nearly teared up while looking for a song to study too. Thank You.
As always GOOGLE ROCKS! Thank you all so much. What a beautiful story.
The intro music is legit!
But I don’t think I could ever become a successful person like this dad
这不是一个广告，更像是一个更美好事情的传递，给谷歌点赞，给这些做美好事情的人们点赞
Me gusta la frase: "Usar la tecnología para dar mejores respuestas". De eso se trata, usar el talento humano para mejorar la vida, no para destruirla. .
Really inspiring and awesome work. Makes us question ourselves what we want to do, with our lives.
wonderful job Google. I feel really happy to see this episode. one of the coolest things I've ever watched
I was determined to find this video just to give it a like. I saw it though an ad for another video. What a great guy for doing this not only for his daughter but everyone else too. Have a great day everyone.

Hello
What a beautiful story. I was so moved and inspired by the father's love and handwork. I hope that I can be successful like him one day.
Muy lindo tus programas

This is wonderful
The fact that there are people who would actually give this a thumbs down is the reason that I have so little faith in humanity.

This man looks like Tom Cruise. A handsome man. Anyway, I am grateful for this video. Thanks to Oculus Prothestic and Google. Please continue to serve those in need. 🙏🙏😭
This is the first full length ad I’ve ever watched simply because I have microphthalmia too. :’)
This is the definition of humanity.
God Bless this family!!!
These videos make me so motivated to do good things in this world. I love Google so much.

Dwayne Collins, you are amazing. Best wishes to you and your beautiful family.
Such a beautiful story. Amazing how a parents love will redirect your life. Truly amazing! You are a super hero! Your daughter is simply perfect and beautiful! Crazy how we depend on doctors to help us when many times for them we are just another client.
Many Blessings!
Beautiful Liberty 😍
I remember being this little, and having to see the eye lady. She would be kind and lovely, but when it came to the part where I had to take my prosthetic eye out, I cried and cried. They would tell me it's ok, it's not going to hurt. But I was 4, 5, 6 years old... Imagine having somebody that close to your face saying 'it's not going to hurt!' it's so scary. From our experience, everything to do with that eye meant pain and discomfort. I didn't understand that the painful eye had gone and it was a pretend eye now, and it wouldn't hurt anymore. It feels weird sometimes, even to this day (I'm 37 now), to sit there in front of someone with no eye in. To be an ocularist you need to understand that discomfort. It's a job that needs people who can take time and explain things and listen to children. Well done dad. You're amazing. Please make me a bright purple and silver one? 😁
Your daughter is beautiful, and you are GREAT parents. Don't let anybody tell you any different.
This is an old video but I still felt compelled to leave a comment. What an amazing family, the father's dedication to his daughter is a true inspiration. I hope their family and business continues to thrive!
Eh FF l y a
It looks beautiful, it truely does. And she is one a beatiful existance. I almost want to have one of these eyes. Love the spirit
I found my way to this vid fro Google's page. So inspiring. As a parent I can only try to understand what he went thru on a daily basis trying to get something perfect for his little one.
What a wonderful story and a magnificent job by him! I wonder what happens with that odd eye, its 40% so its filled with prothese. But does that mean the eye is still in there?
WIsh i could see a full docu about this. Looks so stunning, must be such a prud feeling he helped his little one.
I love this story!
This is an incredible story
Please make more videos like this. This was amazing
probably the most beautiful video I've seen all year....
The team at Google were amazing to work with and put our story together beautifully
You sir, are probably the best dad of the century, for your dedication and determination to do this for your daughter. Not to mention, you wanting to help the people around the world with the same problem.
Thanks for the kind words, they mean a lot.
UA-cam is priceless. If youtube didn't exist it would be much harder to do that.
That's what I love about it; education at everyone's fingertips.
It's been a key factor in helping me develop my art and music over the years.
Most beautiful example of Love in various forms...warms my heart, and I hope this inspires others or helps others or both and then some with a lovely ending where Love conquers all 💞🌎💞

Really emotional history. Something like this happens in my family also. The Power of Love can do great things on people. Congratulations dude, you are a great and lovelly dad.
This man alone has changed the future for so many people... this is proof we can do big things.
I am truly impressed and awestruck. That man needs to be recognized as one of the best dads in the world. It's truly amazing what love will inspire a person to do.

Wow ! Hats off to you. What you have achieved here is brilliant. Good luck for the future.
as well as being dangerous, everyday, I am astounded by the internet's abillity to change someone's life for good. Thanks to the internet, This daughter has had her life bettered by her loving father, because of what he saw in a video. That's so insipring and I wish the whole family all the best.
This came as an ad before a video I was going to watch to relax. What a joy to see this beautiful story in place of a regular "ad." This is wonderful and keep on sharing! Thank you for this :)

As someone who wears a prosthesis, and has had a hidden desire to be able to make my own, this is inspiring, especially since it all came about through the love of your child. Beautiful.
Good one!
