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.
Kapaa - CMS NPI registry, October 2026

Eye Doctors in Kapaa, HI: 14 Registered Practices

14 eye care organizations on the Hawaii side of the Kapaa micropolitan statistical area area hold a current NPI in the October 2026 CMS file: 7 optometry practices (50 percent) and 7 ophthalmology practices. They spread across 3 cities, led by Lihue (11), Kapaa (2) and Koloa (1). The metro covers Kauai County. 3 records were refreshed by the practice in 2024 or later and 9 have not been updated since before 2020.

Booking here: 50 percent of Kapaa records are optometry practices, which is the side of the market that does routine exams at $120 to $200 without insurance. The 7 ophthalmology practices are physician offices and price accordingly, at $150 to $300 or more. Kauai Optometric Center LLC and Eye Care Center of Kauai LLC run multiple offices in this metro, so one price check usually covers all of them.

What an eye exam costs around Kapaa

No prices exist in the NPI registry, so treat the list below as a call sheet rather than a quote sheet. The nearest published national figure is $95, the median starting exam fee across the 1,280 US retail optical stores that print one on their own store pages (30 September 2026), and Medicare pays $149.64 for a comprehensive new-patient exam (CPT 92004).

No national retail optical brand is registered under its own name in this metro, so expect the independent optometry band of $120 to $200 rather than the $50 to $110 retail band. A comprehensive exam is $80 to $120 at the middle half of stores that print a price, and a contact lens fitting is priced separately, at a $129 median published fee.
