Eye Doctors in New Hampshire: 158 Registered Practices
Where they are: Boston-Cambridge-Newton alone holds 66 of them, 42 percent of the state total. Optometry accounts for 84 percent of New Hampshire records, and 6 practices register a subspecialty such as retina, glaucoma or pediatric care as their primary code rather than the general code.
What an eye exam costs in New Hampshire
The registry holds no prices. This site's price research puts a US eye exam at about $136 without insurance and around $25 with a vision plan. Reported state averages run from roughly $113 in the lowest-cost states to about $196 in Hawaii, so treat location as a modest adjustment rather than the main driver.
The bigger lever is which of the 158 practices below you call. Retail optical sits at $50 to $110, independent optometry at $120 to $200, and the 26 New Hampshire ophthalmology practices at $150 to $300 or more, since those visits are usually medical rather than routine.

City names are the free-text values practices entered in the registry, so nearby suburbs sometimes appear under their own name rather than the main city. The metro pages group them properly.
Practices outside the metro pages
10 practices sit in small metro and micropolitan areas or in rural counties outside any Census metro area, so they are listed here rather than on a page of their own.

Retail optical brands registered in New Hampshire
Records whose legal or trading name contains the brand. Retail chains are the low end of the exam price range, so this is worth checking before you call an independent practice.

Multi-site practice groups
Names registered at three or more separate New Hampshire locations. Group practices often run one price list across every office, so a quote from one site usually holds at the others.
