Village Eye Care
The office of Village Eye Care is permanently closed, except for Optical Outfitters, since my retirement in June. It has been the honor of my life to care for my patients. I consider you all part of my extended family. To assist you in transiting to new caregivers and inform you of my future plans please see the information provided below. Everyone at Village Eye Care wish you and your family good health & happiness!
HEALTH RECORDS & FOLLOW UP CARE:Dr. Edward Moylan at (631) 642-2020, in Port Jefferson Station is custodian of all our health records. The Village Eye Care phone (631) 928-6400 will be redirected to his office. Feel free to contact him to schedule follow-up appointments or obtain copies of your health records. Dr. Moylan provided optometric care at my practice for almost a decade before starting North Shore Advanced Eye Care at 537 Patchogue NY-112, Port Jefferson Station. I highly recommend Dr. Moylan for routine eye exams and contact lenses. He will recommend specialty medical care as needed. Our preferred list of specialists is listed below.
I highly recommend Danielle for all your eye wear needs. She understands the importance of well-crafted eyewear for improved vision, safety and style. Danielle knows many of your personal needs which is invaluable in crafting custom eyewear. You couldn’t find a better optical shop, than Optical Outfitters. Danielle provides attention to detail and service that is hard to find at most optical shops. It warms my heart to see the vision we had 30 years ago continue on. I hope that many of you will continue to support her at her new location.
OPTICAL OUTFITTERS:Optical Outfitters is working remotely until our re-opening in Mid November at 158 E. Main St. in the beautiful Village of Port Jefferson.

If you would like to ensure you are on our email list, please call me at 631-928-6401. I am still able to help many of my patients with warranties, certain orders and other services, so don't hesitate to call. DR. COSSARI’S FUTURE PLANS: As many of you are aware, I have a special interest and expertise in educating migraine patients. Many patients have appreciated my ability to help them understand their specific set of symptoms and why they develop. Few people understand how these symptoms are related to this complex genetic disorder. As a result, I am developing a migraine podcast called Migraine Simplified. Migrainesimplified.com will educate individuals on how to mitigate the manifestations of Migraines. I hope to have my Migraine Simplified podcast and MigraineSimplified.com website up and running by 2025. Stay tuned!
A BIT OF HISTORY:Some of you have been patients for many of the 48 years I was in practice. I have had the privilege of caring for you, your children and even your grandchildren. I began my practice as a pediatric ophthalmologist on Medical Drive. It grew into a family practice when many of those children grew up and remained with us. As we grew, I was fortunate to find my wonderful optometric associate, Dr. Jiri Mladek, who saw many of our adult patients. We moved to a larger office on North country Road for a second decade. In an effort to provide our patients with eyeglasses both made and fit better, than what I generally found, I partnered with my daughter Danielle to create Optical Outfitters. We built the Village Eye Care building on Barnum Ave in order to provide complete quality eye care under one roof. Dr. Moylan also joined our practice for a while to work alongside Dr. Mladek. At Village Eye Care the last 30 years we have had wonderful staff help complete this journey for us and I am happy to see Optical Outfitters continue on. Having Danielle work along my side since the optical shop’s inception, she has learned the work ethic and skills to complete the picture for both individualized and properly made glasses. It has been the pleasure of my life to build and maintain a patient centered practice, unlike the direction that much of medicine is moving in today.
