    I was not told anything about my eye exam, and it seemed I was being tested for a prescription for glasses. I don't know if I need them or not and I'm confused. When the doctor left I assumed the MA would come back in and explain why my exam showed or at least tell me what strength readers I need.

    Dr Larouchelle is an excellent physician, but may be a bit overwhelmed by her schedule, such that she did not respond to an urgent concern I had about my eye health.
