Didn't listen at all and rushed through the exam. He contradict what he told me in 2023, and said I must have misheard him.

First comment went something like this, 'we have discussed your vision 3x, what don't you understand'. Reassured him we understand Glacoma and Macular Degeneration, but I like to read the paper and only wanted to try reading glasses. Was reluctant to do exam, because he doubted it would help, but finally agreed to do it. Glad I insisted on exam, because with proper lighting, I can again read the paper. I got the feeling I was wasting his time and he seemed annoyed with me. Was not impressed with his attitude. Thankfully, My daughter was present during exam and spoke on my behalf. She was upset with the way I was treated.
