NEW YORK—OCLI Vision, a multi-practice ophthalmology group located in the Northeast, said this week that it is acquiring NY Vision Group, a New York City-area eyecare group that provides cataract, LASIK, glaucoma, retina and uveitis services from its offices in Tribeca (Manhattan), Richmond Hill (Queens) and Bushwick (Brooklyn). The terms of the transaction were not disclosed. Joining OCLI Vision from NY Vision Group is Harry Koster, MD, and his team of approximately 10 eyecare professionals and surgeons.

OCLI Vision is supported by the management and administrative services of Spectrum Vision Partners (SVP), an organization serving many of the leading ophthalmology groups and ambulatory eye surgery centers in New York, New Jersey, Connecticut, Pennsylvania and West Virginia, according to the group’s announcement.

The doctors at NY Vision Group have a wealth of experience providing the highest standards of care to their patients, the announcement noted. The group’s mission is to preserve vision and treat disease early using the best detection technologies available and the best medical and surgical care for patients.
 
“We’re thrilled to be joining the OCLI Vision Group,” Koster said. “Throughout our history of providing high-quality services to the communities of New York City, we have built an incredibly talented team of premiere eyecare specialists. Joining OCLI Vision gives us the opportunity to continue to further our education, utilize the most advanced technology and surgical techniques, and learn from a group of experienced professionals.
