History
SightMD was formed in 2016 when North Shore Eye Care & Long Island Eye Surgical Care joined forces to provide patients with life-changing care, enabling them to remain active and youthful as they enjoy great vision. North Shore Eye Care, recognized as a leading laser eye surgery group, was founded by Dr. Sidney Martin in Smithtown in 1963. North Shore Eye Care grew exponentially since its humble start, and still proudly provides the personal, warm, and compassionate care that Dr. Martin showed his patients. Long Island Eye Surgical Care was founded as a small ophthalmology practice in 1975 by Dr. Richard Messina. Impressed by Dr. Messina's use of innovative technologies and commitment to the community, Dr. Passarelli acquired the practice in 1985 and gave it its current name. The reputation of the group grew the company rapidly from the 80s through the 2000s, and it opened 8 locations in Long Island. The company prides itself on being available to all patients, every day of the week.
