    Your Neighborhood Eye Doctor in Midwood

    Midwood families have trusted Mega Vision Brooklyn for comprehensive eye care since 1998, just a short drive south from the Avenue J shopping district and Brooklyn College.

    Midwood is a neighborhood of students, growing families, and long-time residents — which means eye care needs that run the full spectrum, from a child's first pair of glasses to computer-strain relief for college students and medical eye care for older adults. Our doctors handle all of it: routine and pediatric eye exams, myopia management to slow nearsightedness in kids, contact lens fittings, dry-eye and allergy treatment, and screening for glaucoma, cataracts, and retinal disease.

    We carry a wide selection of designer and kids' frames and accept most major insurance plans, including the vision plans common among Midwood's teachers, union members, and families — VSP, EyeMed, Davis Vision, UFT, Medicaid, and more. With several Russian-speaking doctors and a patient, family-first approach, we're a comfortable choice for Midwood's diverse community.

    Most Midwood patients start with a comprehensive eye exam in Midwood. We also handle contact lens fittings for Midwood patients, children’s eye exams for Midwood families, dry eye treatment near Midwood, and glaucoma testing for Midwood residents. Looking for frames?
