Reading this record
The practice bills under the legal name Eye Fors PLLC and registered Active Eye Care of Surprise as its trading name, so an insurance statement may show a name that does not match the sign on the door. Beyond the primary code the record carries Optometrist, Corneal and Contact Management, Optometrist, Pediatrics and Optometrist, Vision Therapy, which is the registry's own signal that the practice covers more than routine work. The entry was refreshed in October 2024, putting it among the 185 of 607 Phoenix-Mesa-Chandler records updated in 2024 or later, so the contact details are more likely to be current than most of this metro.
For local context: Surprise holds 16 registered eye care practices in this snapshot, 15 of them optometry and 1 ophthalmology, in ZIP codes including 85374. 14 of them took an NPI before this practice did. The closest is Nationwide Vision in Surprise, 1.0 miles away.
None of this is a licensing check. CMS issues an NPI so a provider can be identified in billing transactions, and states plainly that issuance does not ensure or validate that the holder is licensed or credentialed. The Arizona boards hold the licensing record, and the practice itself is the only source for what it charges today.

What to expect to pay at an optometry practice like this
The NPI registry holds no prices, so nothing here is a quote from Active Eye Care of Surprise. Based on this site's own price research, an independent optometry practice typically charges $120 to $200 for an exam without insurance, against a national average of about $136 and roughly $25 once a vision plan pays its share.
Ask two things when you call: whether the quoted fee includes the refraction, and what a contact lens fitting adds if you wear lenses, since that takes a visit to $150 to $370. A comprehensive exam is $100 to $250. If price is the deciding factor, the 607 practices on the Phoenix-Mesa-Chandler page give you the full local field to call around.
