'I cannot recommend Suncoast Eye Center highly enough! I recently had both cataracts removed there. Dr Manning and the entire staff were professional, and caring. They made me feel very comfortable and explained everything to me very well. I felt safe and cared for throughout the entire process.'

Frequently Asked Questions

What is the difference between an optometrist and an ophthalmologist?

An ophthalmologist is a medical doctor (MD/DO) who specializes in medical and surgical eye care, including cataract, glaucoma, retina, and advanced procedures. An optometrist provides routine eye exams, vision correction, and manages certain eye conditions. At Suncoast Eye Center, our team works collaboratively to ensure complete eye care under one roof.

How often should I have a comprehensive eye exam?

Most adults should have a comprehensive eye exam every year. Patients with diabetes, glaucoma, macular degeneration, or other eye conditions may need more frequent visits.

What should I bring to my appointment?

Please bring:

1. Photo ID

2. Insurance cards

3. List of medications

4. Current glasses or contact lenses

5. Any relevant medical history

Do you accept my insurance?

We accept most major medical and vision insurance plans. Our team can verify your coverage prior to your visit and explain any out-of-pocket costs.

Will my eyes be dilated?

Many comprehensive exams include dilation to fully evaluate the retina and optic nerve. If dilation is necessary, we’ll let you know beforehand and provide guidance for driving afterward.
