Ophthalmic Consultants of Long Island - OCLI

What Ophthalmic Consultants of Long Island - OCLI does

Ophthalmic Consultants of Long Island, operating as OCLI Vision, is a multi-practice ophthalmology platform founded in 1997 and headquartered in Bethpage, New York. The company provides comprehensive eye care services spanning routine primary vision care, elective refractive surgery (LASIK, premium IOLs), cataract surgery, glaucoma management, retinal disease treatment, corneal care, pediatric ophthalmology, neuro-ophthalmology, oculoplastics, and ocular oncology. Clinical operations are supported by advanced surgical technology including the CATALYS Precision Laser System for laser cataract surgery, femtosecond lasers for LASIK, the XEN Gel Stent for minimally invasive glaucoma surgery, and the Implantable Miniature Telescope for end-stage AMD.

OCLI Vision operates 50+ office locations across Connecticut, New Jersey, New York, Pennsylvania, and West Virginia, staffed by 100+ providers including fellowship-trained ophthalmologists and optometrists. The company is private and PE-backed by Spectrum Vision Partners, which provides management and administrative services supporting both organic growth and acquisitions of independent ophthalmology practices. Service delivery is direct-to-patient through scheduled appointments (phone and online), with a referring-provider network serving as a secondary demand channel.

The platform generates revenue through fee-for-service ophthalmology across insurance-reimbursed medical care and patient-paid elective procedures. Pricing is not publicly disclosed. The company has pursued growth through tuck-in acquisitions (EyeCare 2020 in 2019, Comprehensive Eye MD in 2021, a triple retina practice acquisition in Western NY in 2023) and organic capacity expansion including new physician recruitment, with strong early-adopter positioning on novel devices and first-in-kind procedures in its regional markets.

Brands

• OCLI Vision: Primary brand name for the ophthalmology practice network operating across the Northeastern United States.

Products and services

Direct peers

• American Vision Partners: Multi-site ophthalmology platform with a similar Spectrum-affiliated PE-roll-up structure and broad sub-specialty service line, focused on the Southwest/South. Closely comparable business model.
• EyeCare Partners: PE-backed multi-specialty ophthalmology and optometry platform with similar sub-specialty coverage, multi-site model, and acquisition-driven roll-up strategy; operates on a substantially larger national scale than OCLI.
• Barnet Dulaney Perkins Eye Center: Multi-specialty ophthalmology group offering cataract, LASIK, glaucoma, and retina services within a multi-site model; comparable in service breadth and technology adoption, though regional (Arizona).
• US Eye (also known as US Ophthalmic Partners): PE-backed ophthalmology platform with comparable sub-specialty services (cataract, retina, glaucoma, oculoplastics), consolidator playbook, and physician partnership model across the eastern US.

Broad incumbents

• Warby Parker: Vertically integrated eyewear and eye-exam retailer with growing ophthalmic presence; tangential competitor in primary vision care, optical retail, and increasingly in clinical services via telehealth and owned stores.
• Columbia Ophthalmology (NewYork-Presbyterian): Academic ophthalmology department in NYC offering comprehensive sub-specialty care and clinical-trial access; competes with OCLI for complex cases and physician talent in the same geography.
• New York Eye and Ear Infirmary of Mount Sinai: Academic specialty hospital delivering advanced ophthalmology services (including complex retina and glaucoma cases) in the same NYC market; competes for specialist referrals and fellowship-trained physicians.
• National Vision: Large optical retailer (America's Best, Eyeglass World) with optometrist-staffed locations offering eye exams and eyewear; adjacent to OCLI's primary vision care and contact-lens-fitting lines on the lower-acuity side of the market.

Emerging players

• Retina Group of America: Single-specialty retina platform pursuing a similar acquisition-and-network growth strategy; relevant as the type of tuck-in OCLI itself has executed (Western NY retina practices).
• Kraff Eye Institute: Multi-location ophthalmology practice covering cataract and LASIK surgery with advanced femtosecond technology, similar in surgical focus but a smaller single-region platform.
