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 Mt. Vernon Eye Clinic, PLLC and registered Mt. Vernon Eye Clinic as its trading name, so an insurance statement may show a name that does not match the sign on the door. The entry was refreshed in January 2024, putting it among the 1 of 6 Mount Vernon records updated in 2024 or later, so the contact details are more likely to be current than most of this metro.

For local context: Mount Vernon holds 5 registered eye care practices in this snapshot, 5 of them optometry and 0 ophthalmology, in ZIP codes including 62864. 4 of them took an NPI before this practice did. The closest is Mt Vernon Eyecare in Mount Vernon, 0.1 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 Illinois 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 Mt. Vernon Eye Clinic, and independent optometry practices do not publish fee schedules. Customers report paying $120 to $200 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 Mt. Vernon Eye Clinic for its self-pay price.

Ask two things when you call: whether the quoted fee includes the refraction, and what a contact lens fitting adds if you wear lenses (the median published contact-lens fee is $129). A comprehensive exam is $80 to $120 at the middle half of stores that print a price. If price is the deciding factor, the 6 practices on the Mount Vernon page give you the full local field to call around.
