Eye Care That Gives Back in Lorain County  

At North Coast Eye Care, caring for people goes beyond the exam room. For over 50 years, we’ve served the families of Lorain County, and we’re just as committed to reaching those who may not have easy access to eye care. 

Through long-standing partnerships with local schools, clinics, and community health organizations, we work to ensure that vision care is never out of reach, no matter someone’s background, income, or insurance status.

Lorain Free Clinic 

The Lorain Free Clinic is a volunteer-driven healthcare network that provides essential medical services to uninsured and underserved individuals across Lorain County. 

Our eye doctors donate their time and expertise to ensure that patients who may not have vision insurance or regular access to care still receive comprehensive eye exams and treatment. From detecting early signs of eye disease to provide urgent care for vision-threatening conditions, we’re honored to support a clinic that puts people first.

Lorain City Schools Vision Partnership 

Clear vision is essential for learning, but too often, students struggle in the classroom simply because they can’t see the board. That’s why North Coast Eye Care partners directly with Lorain City Schools to help identify and support students who need vision care but face financial or access barriers. 

Through this partnership: 

  • School staff and nurses flag students who may have undiagnosed vision problems. 
  • Those students are brought to our office for full eye exams. 
  • If glasses are needed, we provide them at no cost to the family. 

By stepping in early, we help students succeed in school, stay engaged in learning, and gain confidence knowing they can finally see clearly. 

Lorain County Health & Dentistry Collaboration 

Access to vision care shouldn't depend on zip code or income, and through our partnership with Lorain County Health & Dentistry, we're helping to close that gap. 

This collaboration connects North Coast Eye Care with a wide network of patients who might otherwise go without regular eye exams, glasses, or treatment. By working together, we ensure that low-income individuals and families in Lorain County can receive professional eye care. 

Whether it's catching early signs of disease or helping someone get their first pair of glasses in years, this partnership reflects our belief that vision care is essential care.

Serving Lorain County and Beyond 

Giving back isn’t a side project—it’s part of our identity! 

For over 50 years, North Coast Eye Care has been deeply rooted in Lorain County. We've grown alongside the families we serve, and we believe it's our responsibility to ensure every person in our community has access to quality eye care. 

When a child sees clearly for the first time, or a patient regains the ability to work or drive safely, we’re reminded of why this work matters. Vision changes lives, and we’re proud to be part of that change, both in our offices and out in the community.
