Reading this record
The practice bills under the legal name Bay Ridge Eye & Retina Specialist and registered New York Eye & Retina Specialist, P.C. as its trading name, so an insurance statement may show a name that does not match the sign on the door. The entry was last refreshed in December 2023. That is neither fresh nor ancient by the standards of this metro, where 373 of 2,176 records were updated in 2024 or later and 1,246 predate 2020.
For local context: Brooklyn holds 430 registered eye care practices in this snapshot, 317 of them optometry and 113 ophthalmology, in ZIP codes including 11209. 116 of them took an NPI before this practice did. The closest is Aiello Eyecare Associates, PC in Brooklyn, 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 New York 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holds no prices, so nothing here is a quote from New York Eye & Retina Specialist, P.C., and ophthalmology practices do not publish fee schedules.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 New York Eye & Retina Specialist, P.C. 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 1,457 optometry practices on the New York-Newark-Jersey City page if you only need a prescription.
