Delray Eye Associates

What Delray Eye Associates does

Delray Eye Associates, P.A. is a privately held, single-site multi-specialty ophthalmology practice headquartered at 16201 South Military Trail in Delray Beach, Florida, serving adult, senior, and pediatric patients across Boca Raton, Delray Beach, Palm Beach, and the broader South Florida region. Founded circa 1980 as a Florida Professional Association, the practice has operated continuously for over forty years and currently staffs eight fellowship-trained physicians (seven M.D.s and one O.D.) covering retina, glaucoma, cornea and external disease, neuro-ophthalmology, oculoplastic and facial plastic surgery, and contact lens / low vision services, with several physicians holding voluntary faculty appointments at Bascom Palmer Eye Institute, the University of Miami Miller School of Medicine, and Florida Atlantic University.

The practice delivers the full ophthalmic care continuum under one roof: medical services (exams, glaucoma management, dry eye treatment including TearCare, neuro-ophthalmology, low vision, contact lens fitting); surgical procedures (advanced cataract surgery, LASIK and PRK, refractive lens exchange, corneal cross-linking via iLink, minimally invasive glaucoma surgery using I-Stent/Hydrus/Omni/Xen/Goniotomy, oculoplastic and eyelid surgery, intravitreal anti-VEGF injections and laser photocoagulation for macular degeneration and diabetic retinopathy); and a physician-attached optical dispensary selling prescription eyewear. Underlying technology is medical-device driven — IntraLase femtosecond and VISX Star S4 IR excimer lasers for LASIK, OCT and other diagnostic imaging, premium IOLs from Alcon and Tecnis (multifocal, toric, trifocal, EDOF), and the Valeda photobiomodulation system for dry AMD — supplemented by patient-facing digital tools (telemedicine video consultations, online Cataract Self-Test, LASIK Savings Calculator) and operational integrations with InstaMed for payments and CareCredit for elective-procedure financing.

Revenue is generated on a fee-for-service basis across three streams: professional services (exams, diagnostics, medical management), surgical procedures (cataract, LASIK, RLE, MIGS, cross-linking, oculoplastics — typically billed as one-time global fees), and optical product sales. The practice accepts Medicare assignment for covered services and various commercial insurances, requires payment at time of service, and uses CareCredit to support higher-ticket elective procedures. The go-to-market motion is physician-consultation-led, acquiring patients through referrals, online search, organic social (Facebook, LinkedIn), content marketing, telemedicine, and a website-based self-serve appointment system. The practice is bootstrapped and physician-owned, with no outside investors, parent company, or institutional capital identified.
