Dr. Philip Poulin, Optometrist
Trudy Poulin, Certified Optician
Phil and his sister, Trudy, are originally from the Waterville, Maine area. They started in the eyecare profession working with their father, Optometrist Donald Poulin.
Together they have over forty years of experience, that has brought them from New York to California. This exposure is apparent in their exclusive collection of eyewear, that ranges from eclectic funk to simple elegance.
