Our Niles Eye Care Staff Is Here To Help You With Your Insurance

If you do not see your plan listed here, please give us a call and we would be happy to assist you.

Our office is committed to helping you maximize your insurance benefits. Because insurance policies vary, we can only estimate your coverage in good faith but cannot guarantee coverage due to the complexities of insurance contracts. Please inform us of any changes to your insurance coverage.

Your estimated patient portion must be paid at the time of service. As a service to our patients, we will bill insurance companies for services. If claims are not paid within 60 days, you are responsible for the balance. If you have any questions, our courteous staff is always available to answer them.

Office

Our office staff will be glad to assist you with your insurance coverage. When you first visit our office, bring your current insurance card with you. If you change insurance companies or join another employer’s plan, please be sure to let our insurance department know. If an insurance referral is necessary, please bring the completed form with you to your appointment.

Milwaukee Avenue Eye Center is in-network/a preferred provider for all major insurances, including BCBS, UnitedHealthcare, Medicare and Medicaid.

We will submit all insurance claims for you. We will fully attempt to help you receive full insurance benefits; however, you are personally responsible for your account, and we encourage you to contact us if your policy has not paid within 45 days. If we are not contracted under your insurance, you will be given a copy of services and charges to file with your insurance claim form.

If you have any questions, please don’t hesitate to ask.

What Our Patients Are Saying

I always used independent optical services for eyewear thinking they offered better pricing and the most updated styles. After some unpleasant experiences, I decided to try the optical services at Milwaukee Ave Eye Clinic where my long-time ophthalmologist is now located. What a pleasant experience! Renee and others were most helpful in selecting frames as well as securing the best pricing. I am a very happy customer and elated that I found a location for superior optical service. Love my new glasses! I'll be returning.

This eye center is awesome, amazing, so clean, great work in everything, starting with the organized, professional, knowledgeable, and friendly front desk employees, and the excellent staff who is helping the doctors, doctor’s assistants, I visited dr. Thomas Conti, he is an amazing person and professional doctor he’s so adorable, helpful, experienced and I will visit this official again and again, and I would recommend their services to anyone who is looking for professional vision care

The new location for Milwaukee Avenue Eye Center is a beautiful new building. Patients are greeted immediately and processed quickly. The doctors are the best. My family has been seeing them for over 25 years. I highly recommend the group for all of your eye issues!

I visited Milwaukee Ave. Eye Center on 11/10/ 22.  I had a really good experience.  All of the staff were friendly helpful and professional.  HOWEVER, Wanda Rivera and Renee Coleman were amazing and exceptional.  Wanda took time to find every discount possible.  She also helped me find the perfect pair of glasses with her equally amazing partner Renee.  Renee took so much time with me and worked so hard to help me find styles I didn't think of. She spent so much time and thought to send me home looking my best.  And they both made it so much fun.  I would go back for them anytime!  Loved them!
