Reading this record
The practice bills under the legal name Family First Vision Care PLLC and registered Pearle Vision as its trading name, so an insurance statement may show a name that does not match the sign on the door. 10 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 name matches the Pearle Vision retail brand, which sits at the $50 to $110 end of the exam price range rather than the independent-practice end. The entry was refreshed in May 2024, putting it among the 3 of 23 Panama City-Panama City Beach records updated in 2024 or later, so the contact details are more likely to be current than most of this metro.
For local context: Panama City Beach holds 6 registered eye care practices in this snapshot, 5 of them optometry and 1 ophthalmology, in ZIP codes including 32407. 5 of them took an NPI before this practice did. The closest is Emerald Coast Optometry Associates, PA in Panama City Beach, 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.

What to expect to pay at an optometry practice like this
The NPI registry holds no prices, so nothing here is a quote from Pearle Vision. 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 23 practices on the Panama City-Panama City Beach page give you the full local field to call around.
