Eye Doctors in Fargo, ND: 38 Registered Practices

38 eye care organizations on the North Dakota side of the Fargo metropolitan statistical area area hold a current NPI in the August 2026 CMS file: 29 optometry practices (76 percent) and 9 ophthalmology practices. They spread across 2 cities, led by Fargo (33) and West Fargo (5). The metro covers Cass County. 5 records were refreshed by the practice in 2024 or later and 21 have not been updated since before 2020. The Minnesota side of the same metro adds 5 more, listed separately.

Booking here: 76 percent of Fargo records are optometry practices, which is the side of the market that does routine exams at $120 to $200 without insurance. The 9 ophthalmology practices are physician offices and price accordingly, at $150 to $300 or more. Daniel J. Levin, OD, PC and Dr. Engstrom and Associates run multiple offices in this metro, so one price check usually covers all of them.

What an eye exam costs around Fargo

No prices exist in the NPI registry, so treat the list below as a call sheet rather than a quote sheet. Nationally this site puts an eye exam at about $136 without insurance and around $25 with a vision plan.

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 $100 to $250, and adding a contact lens fitting takes the visit to $150 to $370.
