Reading this record
The practice bills under the legal name T & B Eye Care Services LP and registered 1ST 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 refreshed in October 2025, putting it among the 235 of 1,160 Dallas-Fort Worth-Arlington records updated in 2024 or later, so the contact details are more likely to be current than most of this metro.
For local context: Dallas holds 178 registered eye care practices in this snapshot, 127 of them optometry and 51 ophthalmology, in ZIP codes including 75237. 41 of them took an NPI before this practice did. The closest is T & B Eye Care Services LP in Dallas, 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 Texas 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 optometry practice like this
The NPI registry holds no prices, so nothing here is a quote from 1ST Eye Care, and independent optometry practices do not publish fee schedules. Customers report paying $120 to $200 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 1ST Eye Care for its self-pay price.
Ask two things when you call: whether the quoted fee includes the refraction, and what a contact lens fitting adds if you wear lenses (the median published contact-lens fee is $129). A comprehensive exam is $80 to $120 at the middle half of stores that print a price. If price is the deciding factor, the 1,160 practices on the Dallas-Fort Worth-Arlington page give you the full local field to call around.
