Wisconsin - CMS NPI registry, August 2026
Eye Doctors in Wisconsin: 583 Registered Practices
The August 2026 CMS national provider file lists 583 eye care organizations across Wisconsin: 483 registered as optometry practices (83 percent) and 100 as ophthalmology practices. They sit in 198 cities and towns, led by Milwaukee (31), Brookfield (22), Kenosha (21) and Madison (21). 27 metro areas have enough registered practices for a page of their own and hold 87 percent of the state's records; the remainder are listed below. 116 records were updated by the practice in 2024 or later and 321 have not been touched since before 2020.
Where they are: Milwaukee-Waukesha alone holds 168 of them, 29 percent of the state total. Optometry accounts for 83 percent of Wisconsin records, and 16 practices register a subspecialty such as retina, glaucoma or pediatric care as their primary code rather than the general code.

What an eye exam costs in Wisconsin
The registry holds no prices. This site's price research puts a US eye exam at about $136 without insurance and around $25 with a vision plan. Reported state averages run from roughly $113 in the lowest-cost states to about $196 in Hawaii, so treat location as a modest adjustment rather than the main driver.
The bigger lever is which of the 583 practices below you call. Retail optical sits at $50 to $110, independent optometry at $120 to $200, and the 100 Wisconsin ophthalmology practices at $150 to $300 or more, since those visits are usually medical rather than routine.
Metro areas in Wisconsin
Metro areas are Census core based statistical areas, so a metro can carry several counties and dozens of towns. Each one below has its own page with the full practice list.

City names are the free-text values practices entered in the registry, so nearby suburbs sometimes appear under their own name rather than the main city. The metro pages group them properly.
Practices outside the metro pages
77 practices sit in small metro and micropolitan areas or in rural counties outside any Census metro area, so they are listed here rather than on a page of their own.

Retail optical brands registered in Wisconsin
Records whose legal or trading name contains the brand. Retail chains are the low end of the exam price range, so this is worth checking before you call an independent practice.

| America's Best | 6 | America's Best exam prices |

Multi-site practice groups
Names registered at three or more separate Wisconsin locations. Group practices often run one price list across every office, so a quote from one site usually holds at the others.
