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

CMS records this location as a subpart of Marblehead Ophthalmology PC, meaning it bills under its own NPI but belongs to a larger organization. The entry was last refreshed in July 2023. That is neither fresh nor ancient by the standards of this metro, where 109 of 632 records were updated in 2024 or later and 350 predate 2020.

For local context: Marblehead holds 4 registered eye care practices in this snapshot, 1 of them optometry and 3 ophthalmology, in ZIP codes including 01945. 2 of them took an NPI before this practice did. The closest is Leon L Remis MD PC in Marblehead, 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 Massachusetts 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registry holds no prices, so nothing here is a quote from Marblehead Ophthalmology 2 LLC, and ophthalmology practices do not publish fee schedules.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 Marblehead Ophthalmology 2 LLC 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 447 optometry practices on the Boston-Cambridge-Newton page if you only need a prescription.
