Order comments in admin by custom date

I found the solution and happy to share the code:

function cws_pre_get_comments( $comments ) {
  $comments->query_vars['meta_key'] = 'datum_van_uitvoering';
  $comments->query_vars['orderby'] = 'meta_value_num';
  $comments->query_vars['order'] = 'DESC';
  $comments->meta_query->parse_query_vars( $comments->query_vars );
}
add_action( 'pre_get_comments', 'cws_pre_get_comments' );
