Clarity Made Easy With Our Contact Lenses
Are you or your children considering contact lenses? At Nittany Eye Associates, we offer a convenient alternative to traditional eyeglasses with our expert contact lens services.
Contact Lenses to Match Your Lifestyle
Your lifestyle plays a role in determining the type of contact lenses that will best suit your needs. One of our eye doctors will help you choose a pair of lenses, teaching you how to insert, remove, and store them properly. You’ll also be able to try them out at home before settling on a choice.
The Role of Contact Lens Exams
Finding the ideal contact lenses involves more than just knowing your prescription; it's about ensuring a precise fit for your eyes. That’s why our contact lens exams consider factors like your corneal curvature, tear film quality, and lifestyle.
Once you've found the ideal contact lenses, our commitment to your eye health continues with post-fitting follow-ups. These check-ins ensure your lenses maintain their comfort and effectiveness, allowing us to address any concerns, make necessary adjustments, and provide further guidance on proper lens care.
Our Featured Contact Lenses in Pennsylvania
Daily Contact Lenses
Nothing defines convenience like daily contact lenses. These single-use lenses eliminate the need for cleaning and storage, providing a fresh, hygienic pair every day. We recommend daily disposables for those with active lifestyles, young contact lens wearers, and anyone seeking a hassle-free and comfortable way to enjoy clear vision.
Bi-Weekly and Monthly Contacts
For a cost-effective and eco-friendly option, consider bi-weekly and monthly contact lenses. These lenses require regular cleaning and storage but offer extended use over several weeks. They are an excellent choice for those who want to strike a balance between convenience and sustainability while enjoying visual clarity.
Bifocal and Multifocal Contact Lenses
Presbyopia doesn't have to mean giving up contact lenses. Our bifocal and multifocal contact lenses provide clear vision at varying distances, making them ideal for individuals with age-related vision changes. This means there’s no need to wear reading glasses for up-close vision.
Colored Contacts for Special Occasions
Colored contact lenses offer more than just a change in eye color — they’re also a means of creative self-expression. Our colored contact lenses include subtle enhancements of natural eye colors and even bright, bold hues for bold transformations. If you need vision correction, you can also get colored contact lenses in prescription forms.
Specialty Contacts for a more custom fit
Finding the right contact lenses can be a transformative experience. Our optometrists offer specialty contact lenses for people with eye conditions such as:
- Keratoconus, astigmatism, and other corneal irregularities
- Dry Eye
- Post-LASIK or refractive surgery
- Aphakia
- Giant Papillary Conjunctivitis (GPC)
- High prescriptions
Some of the specialty contact lenses we offer include toric lenses for astigmatism, prosthetic lenses for damaged eyes, and silicone hydrogel lenses for extended wear. We also provide:
Gas-Permeable Lenses: Versatile lenses that offer oxygen permeability, while their rigid design provides stable vision correction. They also provide durability and longevity, making them a cost-effective choice in the long-run.
Scleral Lenses: These are large-diameter lenses that vault over the entire cornea and rest on the white part of the eye (sclera). They create a tear-filled reservoir between the lens and the cornea, providing exceptional comfort and clear vision.
Hybrid Lenses: These lenses combine the comfort of soft contact lenses with the visual clarity of rigid gas-permeable lenses.
