Although this provider was polite and professional, she gave the impression she was unable to help. She basically told me to "get a new eyeglass prescription" and referred me to the Glaucoma Dept. [redacted] I had been told by my referring optometrist that my prescription had not changed so "getting a new eyeglasses" seemed unhelpful and dismissive.

I've been seeing Dr. Rossin for a few years. Last year I asked her if she had to use the very bright light to look into my retinas.
