Azzrah Thobani

Azzrah Thobani practices across the street from Stuyvesant Park, where routine eye checks often feel like a pause rather than a chore. Around the corner from Fishs Eddy and a few blocks from the East River Park loop, the practice sits at 170 2nd Ave, New York, NY 10003, easy to reach whether you’re coming off the F train or walking uptown from the piers.

This small East Village optometry office keeps the process simple. Eye exams, screening for glaucoma, contact lens fittings, and brief foreign-body removals are handled in a single visit when possible. Paediatric refractions and diabetic eye assessments slot into the same schedule, which means families and individuals can book the same time slot for different needs.

On the block you’ll find dozens of options for lenses and frames, but Azzrah Thobani concentrates on what happens before the glasses are made: checking prescription accuracy, detecting early signs of retinal change, and verifying peripheral vision. Call ahead to discuss scheduling or to confirm sports-vision screenings and post-surgical follow-ups.
