Reading this record

The practice bills under the legal name Paragould Family Vision PLLC and registered Progressive Eye Center of Paragould as its trading name, so an insurance statement may show a name that does not match the sign on the door. The entry was last refreshed in June 2023. That is neither fresh nor ancient by the standards of this metro, where 0 of 7 records were updated in 2024 or later and 5 predate 2020.

For local context: Paragould holds 7 registered eye care practices in this snapshot, 7 of them optometry and 0 ophthalmology, in ZIP codes including 72450. 6 of them took an NPI before this practice did. The closest is Paragould Eye Care, LLC in Paragould, 0.0 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 Arkansas boards hold the licensing record, and the practice itself is the only source for what it charges today.

1 other organization holds an NPI at the same street address. Shared suites and multi-specialty buildings are common, and it is worth knowing which entity you are actually booking with.

What to expect to pay at an optometry practice like this

The NPI registry holds no prices, so nothing here is a quote from Progressive Eye Center of Paragould. 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 7 practices on the Paragould page give you the full local field to call around.
