Reading this record
The practice bills under the legal name Steiner Eye Care, PLLC and registered Steiner Eye Care as its trading name, so an insurance statement may show a name that does not match the sign on the door. 2 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 last refreshed in January 2023. That is neither fresh nor ancient by the standards of this metro, where 81 of 372 records were updated in 2024 or later and 184 predate 2020.
For local context: Austin holds 190 registered eye care practices in this snapshot, 149 of them optometry and 41 ophthalmology, in ZIP codes including 78732. 107 of them took an NPI before this practice did. The closest is Dennis E Smith OD PA in Austin, 1.3 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 Texas 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 Steiner Eye Care. 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 372 practices on the Austin-Round Rock-San Marcos page give you the full local field to call around.
