Reading this record
Beyond the primary code the record carries Optometrist and Ophthalmology, Retina Specialist, which is the registry's own signal that the practice covers more than routine work. 36 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 refreshed in May 2024, putting it among the 136 of 378 Washington-Arlington-Alexandria records updated in 2024 or later, so the contact details are more likely to be current than most of this metro.
For local context: Greenbelt holds 9 registered eye care practices in this snapshot, 6 of them optometry and 3 ophthalmology, in ZIP codes including 20770. No other practice in the city took its NPI earlier than this one, which makes it the longest-registered address here. The closest is Refocus Eye Health of MD LLC in Greenbelt, 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 Maryland 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 ophthalmology practice like this
The NPI registry holds no prices, so nothing here is a quote from The Retina Group of Washington, PLLC, and ophthalmology practices do not publish fee schedules.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 The Retina Group of Washington, PLLC 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 241 optometry practices on the Washington-Arlington-Alexandria page if you only need a prescription.
