However, Katrina, the optometrist, welcomed me as if I was one of her very own customers. Due to my irregular nose, the first fitting didn't quite work. So, I showed up the next day before they opened, and Katrina managed to squeeze me into her hectic schedule even though patients were already lining up.

It had the only eye doctor that did not give me a disrespectful hard time about refusing eye dilation. Dr. Vachon's exam and diagnosis, even with my cataract, was spot-on and I can now see things I've not seen in years. Eye dilations are for medical diagnosis only and not needed just to get an updated vision prescription. In fact, the only poor eye exam prescription outcomes I've had in my entire life - 4 of them in 2 states - were the result of eye dilations and the exams had to be redone every time, even when an ophthalmologist did them - at an average additional cost of $60! Penobscot's optician, Rebecca, also did an excellent job with their selection of frames and with fitting and finish work and my new glasses were ready in half the estimated time. I would highly recommend Penobscot Eye Care to anyone.

Now in my time of need I'm given the company line.

When asked if there were any resources or help during this time, I was once again reminded of the "company line".
