PRIMARY EYECARE & OPTICAL OF MERIDIAN, P.A.

What PRIMARY EYECARE & OPTICAL OF MERIDIAN, P.A. does

Primary Eyecare & Optical of Meridian, P.A. is a single-location optometry practice operating in Meridian, Mississippi, founded in 2008 by Dr. Minh Duong and Dr. Thi Bui. The practice delivers comprehensive primary eye care services including routine eye and vision exams, contact lens fittings, pediatric eye care, and clinical management of conditions such as glaucoma, cataracts, macular degeneration, diabetic retinopathy, dry eye, and myopia, along with pre- and post-LASIK co-management and minor procedures such as foreign object extraction. Its clinical delivery relies on state-of-the-art ophthalmic diagnostic equipment, and the optical retail component stocks a selection of designer frames (Ray-Ban, Oakley, Gucci, Maui Jim, Tom Ford, Guess, Fossil, Polo, Lacoste, Wiley X) alongside a contact lens dispensary. The practice is staffed by three optometrists (Dr. Minh Duong as owner, Dr. Robert "Slater" Smith, and Dr. Eric J. Johnson II) supported by approximately seven total employees, and has expanded its physical facility twice since opening (2015 and 2017) to accommodate patient growth.

The business operates a direct-to-consumer, professional services and retail model. Revenue is generated through three principal streams: professional fees for eye examinations and clinical treatments, one-time sales of prescription eyeglasses and bundled lens packages ($80 single vision, $100 bifocal, $180 digital progressive, all including premium anti-reflective coating in a house frame), and contact lens sales with annual supply promotions. Patient acquisition is driven primarily through the practice website (primaryeyecarems.com) with integrated online appointment booking via 4patientcare.ws, supported by a content marketing blog covering eye health topics, and direct phone inquiries. The practice accepts most vision insurance plans and offers CareCredit financing and FSA payments to broaden affordability. Contact lens reorders are also facilitated through a yourlens.com integration, providing a lightweight e-commerce extension to the in-office dispensary.

The addressable customer base is the general population of Meridian, MS and surrounding East Mississippi / West Alabama region, segmented into personas such as pediatric patients, individuals at risk for glaucoma, and diabetic patients needing retinopathy screening. Pricing is unit-based per service or product rather than subscription-based, with no platform or recurring contract structure. The practice holds no patents, trademarks, certifications, or external investment, and operates as a professional association wholly owned and controlled by its founding doctors.
