dchenesHere we go again.
I now REALLY have to get a new ophthalmologist. I need new lenses, and my current insurance doesn't cover my current eye doctor. (Harvard changed insurance on me. My old insurance had also stopped covering my current ophthalmologist, but I wasn't in need of new lenses when they did that, so I hadn't started looking very hard for a new ophthalmologist.)
The problem is that given my history of retinal tears, I really do want to see an ophthalmologist, not an optometrist. Which means I don't want to go to LensCrafters or similar for eye exams. I haven't a clue where to find ophthalmologists outside the New England Eye Center (my current eye doctor) or MEEI (which my new insurance will cover, but which is a bit of a hike from both work and home).
So does anyone in the Boston metro area have an ophthalmologist they like who isn't at the New England Eye Center?
[ETA: Never mind. I made an appointment with MEEI anyway. I hope the doctors are more personable than the people who make the appointments.]
