Services
Rhode Eyeland offers personalized eye care, stylish eyewear, and exceptional customer service. Services include comprehensive exams, emergency care, contact lens fittings, and a full-service optical shop with designer frames. We are a locally owned small business, not a franchise.
From routine exams to specialty disease management, from designer frames to prescription sunglasses, our two licensed optometrists and skilled optical team are here for every step of your vision care — all in one welcoming North Kingstown office.
Drs. Jacqueline Boisvert and Christian Humulock have served South County families for over a decade — combining the medical depth of a full-scope optometry practice with the curated optical experience of a boutique eyewear shop. Whatever you need, you'll find it here, in the Stop & Shop Plaza on Frenchtown Road.
A full hour with your optometrist — not a 15-minute prescription update. We screen for glaucoma, cataracts, diabetic retinopathy, and macular degeneration alongside your refraction, and we look for systemic conditions like diabetes and hypertension that often show up in the eyes first. Two licensed doctors (Drs. Boisvert and Humulock, both NECO-trained; Dr. Boisvert is a diplomate of the American Board of Optometry), and a same-practice optical so updating glasses or contacts is seamless.
Refraction, slit lamp, IOP check, and retinal evaluation
AOA recommends an exam every 2 years for low-risk adults under 65, annually for adults 65+ or those at higher risk
Pediatric exams welcomed (children as young as a few years old)
Medical insurance accepted for exams; vision benefits handled via out-of-network reimbursement
Comprehensive Eye Exams
Soft, toric, multifocal, gas permeable, and specialty lenses for hard-to-fit eyes. Our Contact Lens Fit & Teach service walks first-time wearers through everything they need to feel confident — and patients told elsewhere that they cannot wear contacts often can with the right professional fitting.
Daily disposables, monthlies, torics, multifocals, and rigid gas permeable
Specialty fits for astigmatism, dry eyes, keratoconus, and post-surgical corneas
First-time wearer Fit & Teach service

A hand-curated optical featuring Krewe, Silhouette Atelier Next, Maui Jim, Ray-Ban, Oakley, Kate Spade, Lafont, Face à Face, Seraphin, Morel, and more — paired with precision lenses fit by trained opticians, all under one roof with the doctors who wrote your prescription. We also carry Nuance Audio, EssilorLuxottica’s FDA-registered hearing glasses for adults with mild-to-moderate hearing loss.

Designer Eyewear & Eyeglasses
Prescription Sunglasses
Polarized, photochromic, mirrored, and sport sun lenses built into the frames you actually want to wear — for the bay, the boat, the trail, and the drive home into the afternoon sun. UV protection that is medical-grade, in styles that look great.
Maui Jim PolarizedPlus2, Ray-Ban, Oakley, Krewe, Silhouette, Kate Spade, Morel, and Seraphin sun collections
Wraparound and sport-curved frames with prescription compatibility
Photochromic Transitions for one-pair-does-all flexibility
Sudden vision loss, eye pain, an injury, or a flood of new floaters? For sight-threatening emergencies, dial 911 or head to the nearest ER. For office-appropriate urgent concerns, call us — we triage same-day with the slit lamp, ophthalmic imaging, and disease-specific expertise an emergency room rarely has, and you’ll typically be seen faster by someone trained specifically in eye disease. (For chemical splashes, irrigate with water for at least 15 minutes first, then call.)
Same-day urgent appointments prioritized
Existing patient or new — call us either way
Direct referral to ophthalmology if surgical care is needed
Emergency Eye Care
Dry Eye Treatment
Watery, gritty, burning, screen-fatigued eyes are not something to live with. We diagnose what is actually causing your dry eye — tear production, lid disease, medications, autoimmune contributors — and build a treatment plan that addresses the cause, not just the symptoms.
Comprehensive dry eye evaluation including tear film and lid assessment
Personalized plans combining artificial tears, lid hygiene, prescription anti-inflammatory drops, omega-3s, punctal occlusion, and amniotic membranes when indicated
Coordination with primary care for systemic causes when appropriate
Slowing childhood nearsightedness today means lower lifetime risk of retinal disease tomorrow. We discuss specialty soft contact lenses, low-dose atropine drops and lifestyle habits that protect your child’s long-term vision — and we partner with families to make the right plan stick.
FDA-approved MiSight contact lenses (indicated for ages 8–12 at start of treatment) and low-dose atropine drops
Progression tracking, with axial-length biometry where available
Most effective when started early — typically before age 12
Myopia Management for Children
Diabetic retinopathy can develop without symptoms. An annual dilated eye exam catches the changes early and connects your eye care directly to your endocrinologist or PCP, so your full medical team stays in the loop. Most plans cover diabetic eye exams as a medical benefit.
Comprehensive dilated retinal evaluation
Retinal imaging (photography or OCT) when indicated
Direct reporting to your primary care or endocrinology team
Diabetic Eye Exams
Locally owned small business — not a franchise
Two licensed optometrists with decades of combined experience
Medical eye care and a designer optical department under one roof
Convenient North Kingstown location, easy from Wickford, East Greenwich, and across South County
Over a decade serving the same community
Same-day urgent appointments and personal follow-up — the kind of care that closes on a Sunday and still answers the phone
Why Rhode Eyeland
Insurance & payment
We focus on medical eye care and bill your medical insurance (we accept most) for exams — including medical conditions like dry eye and diabetes.
We don’t bill vision insurance directly, but we’ll check your out-of-network benefits and file the claim for you, so you can still get reimbursed for exams and eyewear.
Call (401) 262-0042 and we’ll verify your specific benefits before your visit.
