Dr. Jai Parekh

Blurred vision no longer belongs in everyday routines. Dr. Jai Parekh in Manhattan handles much more than glasses prescriptions. Cataracts, glaucoma screenings, and diabetic eye exams roll through the usual stoppages of care that accumulate downtown, right where they’re hardest to dodge.

People in the East Village and beyond will find retinal scans and pediatric eye exams bundled into the visit, not parceled across half a dozen offices. Dry-eye treatment and contact-lens fittings complete the short list that many optometrists outsource. The 310 E 14th St, New York, NY 10003 address sits inside a corridor of services sprinting parallel to First Avenue—multiple subway lines show up within three blocks.

To schedule—or reroute a referral—they pick up (212) 979-4000. A map pin for the office drops onto any device in seconds, pinpointing the clinic before the walk back to Avenue A becomes second nature.
