eye Conditions We Treat
We treat a wide range of eye conditions. Visit our Pennsylvania locations in Windmere, Grays Woods,Spring Mills, Tyrone, and Lock Haven. Some of the common eye conditions we manage include:
Precise Treatment for Astigmatism
Astigmatism is a common refractive error that can lead to blurred or distorted vision. It’s caused by the cornea being irregularly shaped, which makes it difficult for light to focus correctly on the retina.
We offer precise diagnostics and advanced treatment options to correct astigmatism so you can achieve clear and comfortable vision. This includes eyeglasses, contact lenses, and sometimes surgical interventions like LASIK.
Computer Vision Syndrome/Digital Eye Syndrome
Many individuals experience discomfort and vision problems related to extended screen time. Our tailored solutions include computer and blue-light-blocking glasses that reduce eye strain and the effects of blue light from electronic devices on the eyes.
Our team can also provide guidance on ergonomic adjustments, such as comfortable office chairs, and offer tips to reduce eye strain associated with prolonged digital device use.
Targeted Relief For Dry Eyes
We offer comprehensive treatment for dry eye, a common condition that can cause irritation, redness, and discomfort due to poor quality or insufficient tear production.
Environmental factors like air conditioning, wind, prolonged screen time, hormonal changes, and certain medical conditions or medications can trigger this condition. Our personalized approach ensures effective relief and improved eye health.
At Nittany Eye Associates, we use advanced diagnostic techniques to pinpoint the underlying causes of your dry eye, which allows us to create a customized treatment plan. This may involve prescription eye drops, supplements, lifestyle modifications or specialized treatments such as Intense Pulsed Light (IPL) therapy, or TearCare.
Keratoconus Management in Pennsylvania
Keratoconus is a progressive eye disorder that affects the shape of the cornea, causing it to bulge out into a cone-like shape, which leads to distorted vision. Our skilled optometrists at Nittany Eye Associates are well-versed in the management of keratoconus.
We offer specialty contact lenses, such as scleral lenses, and can discuss surgical options like corneal cross-linking to stabilize and improve your vision.
Myopia Management Measures
Myopia, or nearsightedness, is a common refractive error that makes distant objects appear blurry. We offer myopia evaluations and management solutions for adults and children.
Our myopia control methods at Nittany Eye Associates include orthokeratology and specialized contact lenses to slow myopia's progression and reduce the risk of associated eye problems.
