About

First Sight Vision Services Inc in College Area provides comprehensive eye exams and corrective lens prescriptions from its San Diego optometry office inside the Walmart at 3412 College Ave, 92115. The practice operates under FirstSight Vision Services Inc, a Knox-Keene health plan administrator that manages independent optometry offices across California. Dr. Videnne Sath, OD (NPI #1851604540) leads the clinical team, and primary care physicians along the College Avenue corridor — including Brownell Kristin MD — routinely coordinate diabetic eye screening referrals with the office to satisfy HEDIS retinal-exam compliance measures. Same-day scheduling is available for routine vision screenings, contact lens fittings, and diagnostic evaluations for conditions including astigmatism, presbyopia, and early-stage glaucoma. Retinal photography captures widefield images of the optic nerve and macula, giving the optometrist a baseline record to track diabetic retinopathy and age-related macular degeneration at subsequent annual visits. Contact lens evaluations cover spherical, toric, and multifocal designs, with trial sets dispensed on-site so patients can assess comfort before committing to a full order. The office sits four blocks south of the SDSU campus, drawing a mix of university staff and Rolando-area residents who schedule annual exams between classes or work shifts. Prescriptions for medicated eye drops and oral antihistamines for allergic conjunctivitis route to neighborhood pharmacies, and Care Pharmacy on University Avenue handles same-day fills for patients in the 92115 ZIP. Wheelchair-accessible exam lanes, an ADA-compliant parking lot, and ground-floor entry eliminate mobility barriers for patients using walkers or chairs. The autorefractor and phoropter station runs a full subjective refraction sequence in under eight minutes, calibrated to 0.25-diopter increments for precise single-vision and progressive lens prescriptions.
