From Fox Run Mall to Independent Vision Care: Dr. Amy Catalano Boyer’s 25+ Year Journey
For more than two decades, patients across the Seacoast have trusted Dr. Amy Catalano Boyer for steady, thoughtful vision care. Her professional journey reflects both experience and growth—beginning in a familiar retail setting and evolving into an independent vision and optical practice designed around today’s visual needs.
Dr. Amy has been practicing optometry since 2000, bringing over 25+ years of experience to individuals and families who value clarity, continuity, and personal connection in their eye care.
Education and Early Career Foundations
Dr. Amy earned her Doctor of Optometry degree from Indiana University Bloomington, a nationally respected institution known for its clinical training and patient-centered approach. After completing her education, she returned to New Hampshire and began building what would become a long-standing career rooted in community-based vision care.
From the very beginning, her focus has been on careful vision assessment, clear communication, and helping patients understand how their eyesight changes over time.
A Familiar Name from Fox Run Mall
Many long-time patients still recognize Dr. Amy as the eye doctor from Fox Run Mall. For more than 24 years (August 2000–December 2024), she practiced next to LensCrafters Newington, providing eye exams and optical services to generations of patients who continue to trust her care today. Her calm demeanor, consistent presence, and ability to explain vision changes in a reassuring way helped establish strong, lasting patient relationships. Many of those same patients continued their care with her after her years practicing next to LensCrafters in Newington, NH.
From Eye Exams to a Fully Independent Practice
Fox Run Eye Care celebrated its first anniversary as an independent vision and optical practice on January 6, 2026. After more than 25 years of clinical experience, Dr. Amy made the decision to expand her professional scope and open her own independent vision center. This transition marked a pivotal moment in her career—moving from providing eye exams alone to offering both optometric and optical services under one roof.
This evolution allows patients to complete their eye exam, eyewear selection, and vision-related consultations in a single, comfortable setting—without the time pressure often associated with retail environments.

Advanced Lens Technology and Science-Based Innovation

The practice also offers FDA-authorized spectacle lenses for myopia control in children, an innovation supported by multi-year clinical research and reviewed by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration.
This science-based approach reflects Dr. Amy’s belief that proven technology should enhance, not replace, the personal connection between doctor and patient.
A Patient-Centered Approach Built on Trust
What continues to distinguish Dr. Amy’s work is her commitment to education and clear communication. Patients consistently note the time she takes to explain exam findings, review prescription updates, and discuss everyday visual habits without rushing the visit.
