Dry Eye Services
Our Dry Eye Center of PA offers advanced treatments for chronic dry eye syndrome. Using technologies like LipiFlow and TearLab, we address meibomian gland dysfunction and inflammation. Our multi-treatment approach includes IPL therapy, punctal occlusion, and amniotic membrane applications to restore ocular surface health and improve tear quality.
Yearly Eye Exams
Comprehensive eye exams utilize Zeiss Clarus imaging and Medmont topography to assess retinal health and corneal structure. Our doctors evaluate visual acuity, eye coordination, and disease risk factors. These annual exams detect early signs of glaucoma, diabetic retinopathy, and age-related macular degeneration while updating corrective lens prescriptions.
Contact Lens Fittings
We provide customized contact lens fittings for all vision needs. Our optometrists prescribe daily disposables, toric lenses for astigmatism, and specialty scleral lenses. The process includes corneal mapping, tear film evaluation, and trial lens instruction to ensure optimal comfort and visual clarity for first-time and experienced wearers.
Emergency Services
Our 24/7 emergency care handles urgent ocular conditions like chemical burns, foreign body removal, and acute glaucoma attacks. Certified doctors treat traumatic injuries and infections using diagnostic tools like the Zeiss HFA3 visual field analyzer. We prioritize immediate care for red eyes, sudden vision loss, and post-injury assessments.
Frame Selection
Our opticians assist with selecting frames that complement facial structure and prescription needs. We offer titanium, memory metal, and polycarbonate frames with features like spring hinges and impact resistance. The selection includes styles for round, square, and oval face shapes, with adjustments for optimal fit and comfort.
