VisionTestCost.com is an independent price comparison resource. One labelled affiliate link (VSP individual vision plans) can earn us a commission; it never changes a price. Most US optical chains publish no exam price at all, so a figure here is either a published price or a reported range, and the provider pages say which.

Reading this record

The practice bills under the legal name Sunil Gupta MD LLC and registered Retina Specialty Institute as its trading name, so an insurance statement may show a name that does not match the sign on the door. 9 locations nationally are registered under the same name, so pricing and policies are likely to be set at group level rather than at this office. The entry was last refreshed in September 2022. That is neither fresh nor ancient by the standards of this metro, where 19 of 62 records were updated in 2024 or later and 28 predate 2020.

For local context: Crestview holds 11 registered eye care practices in this snapshot, 5 of them optometry and 6 ophthalmology, in ZIP codes including 32536. 6 of them took an NPI before this practice did. The closest is Alabata Eye Center LLC in Crestview, 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 Florida boards hold the licensing record, and the practice itself is the only source for what it charges today.

Also registered at this address

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 ophthalmology practice like this

The NPI registry holds no prices, so nothing here is a quote from Retina Specialty Institute, and ophthalmology practices do not publish fee schedules. Customers report paying $150 to $300 or more at this kind of practice without insurance, which is a reported band rather than a published price. The nearest published figure is $95, the median starting fee across the 1,280 US retail optical stores that print one (30 September 2026), and Medicare pays $149.64 for a comprehensive new-patient exam (CPT 92004). Ask Retina Specialty Institute for its self-pay price.

Ophthalmology visits are usually medical rather than routine, which changes who pays: medical insurance and Medicare Part B cover a medically necessary exam, while a routine refraction for glasses is normally not covered. Ask whether the visit will be billed as medical or routine before you book, and compare with the 48 optometry practices on the Crestview-Fort Walton Beach-Destin page if you only need a prescription.
