Your Neighborhood Eye Doctor in Sheepshead Bay
Sheepshead Bay residents don't have to head far for expert eye care — Mega Vision Brooklyn is a straight shot west along Avenue U or Kings Highway. Since 1998 we've cared for families from the Emmons Avenue waterfront to Ocean Avenue and Nostrand Avenue, and we know this corner of Brooklyn well.
Life by the bay comes with plenty of bright sun off the water, which makes UV-protective lenses and quality sunglasses more than a style choice — and it's one more reason regular eye exams matter here. Our optometrists provide the full range of care: comprehensive and pediatric eye exams, contact lens fittings (including specialty, toric, and multifocal lenses), glaucoma and cataract evaluations, dry-eye treatment, and retinal imaging for early detection of macular degeneration and diabetic eye disease.
We carry designer eyewear and accept most major insurance plans. Whether you're booking a routine checkup or something more specialized, our board-certified doctors and multilingual staff make it easy.
Most Sheepshead Bay patients start with a comprehensive eye exam in Sheepshead Bay. We also handle contact lens fittings for Sheepshead Bay patients, children’s eye exams for Sheepshead Bay families, dry eye treatment near Sheepshead Bay, and glaucoma testing for Sheepshead Bay residents.
