Dr. Richard S. Koplin, MD

Park Avenue still draws professionals and residents who seek specialists without the crowds found downtown. A brief turn off a main thoroughfare drops you right at Dr. Richard S. Koplin, MD, whose office sits inside the 1970s tower at 101 Park Ave. From low-vision aids to advanced cataract evaluations, the schedule covers common needs as well as less frequent urgencies such as sudden ocular trauma or unusual inflammations.

Alongside diagnostic checks—visual field testing, optical coherence tomography, and retinal imaging—the place offers refractive work that includes contact-lens fittings and post-LASIK follow-ups. Patients who need an updated prescription for glasses will find the refraction lanes geared for accuracy, not speed. Outside the exam lanes, second-opinion visits run at the same tables where initial consultations begin, ending with a typed summary slipped into an envelope.

Reach the front desk any weekday and the line connects straight through to (212) 697-0202. A map and directions are folded into the practice’s listing: https://www.google.com/maps/place?ftid=0x89c2590171d3e389:0x7158b4b5e13db158. Eyecare in midtown doesn’t have to feel hurried, not when the next appointment stays in New York.
