Reading this record
CMS records this location as a subpart of Carl Sakovits, meaning it bills under its own NPI but belongs to a larger organization. The entry was last refreshed in January 2022. That is neither fresh nor ancient by the standards of this metro, where 22 of 151 records were updated in 2024 or later and 85 predate 2020.
For local context: Bristol holds 3 registered eye care practices in this snapshot, 2 of them optometry and 1 ophthalmology, in ZIP codes including 02809. 2 of them took an NPI before this practice did. The closest is Paul E Sydlowski MD LLC in Bristol, 0.8 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 Rhode Island 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 Bristol County Eye Care LLC. Based on this site's own price research, an independent optometry practice typically charges $120 to $200 for an exam without insurance, against a national average of about $136 and roughly $25 once a vision plan pays its share.
Ask two things when you call: whether the quoted fee includes the refraction, and what a contact lens fitting adds if you wear lenses, since that takes a visit to $150 to $370. A comprehensive exam is $100 to $250. If price is the deciding factor, the 151 practices on the Providence-Warwick page give you the full local field to call around.
