What Are Contact Lenses?
Nearsightedness (myopia), farsightedness (hyperopia), and age-related vision loss (presbyopia) are all very common visual impairments that affect a large number of people around the world. Thankfully, these issues can be easily treated with prescription contact lenses, eyeglasses, sunglasses, or a combination of the three to suit your lifestyle and daily needs. At The Eye Center of Central PA, we offer a full line of contact lenses (including specialty lenses for corneal conditions and astigmatism) to suit your unique needs at each of our optical centers throughout Central Pennsylvania.
Our facilities utilize the most advanced technology to fully assess your refractive error and eye health so we can accurately determine which contact lenses are right for your needs. Get in touch with one of our offices to schedule your eye exam with an optometrist and take your first step to see the world more clearly.
Who Gets Contact Lenses?
To determine the type and prescription of contact lenses you need, one of our optometrists will perform a comprehensive eye exam to fully understand your refractive error and vision needs. For many patients, contacts are the most convenient way to achieve their best sight on a day-to-day basis. Along with their convenience, contact lenses are designed to address a wide range of refractive errors, eye shapes, and eye conditions. Some of the more common types of contacts we offer include daily wear, one-day wear, bifocal, and astigmatism lenses.
Modern contacts are easier to wear now than ever before. In fact, as high as 90% of contact lens users report experiencing no discomfort. When opting for contacts, eyeglasses, sunglasses, or a combination of the three, it's important to consider factors, like your lifestyle, work conditions, daily activities, eye health, and your own unique preferences.

During your vision evaluation and lens consultation, we will help you make the most informed choices for your specific needs and provide you with all of the information you need about the different types and brands of lenses we offer. Our devoted team at The Eye Center of Central PA dedicates a great deal of effort and consideration to help you discover the most appropriate contact lens for your unique situation.

Today was a follow up appointment to check the status of my dry eye condition. I only recently transferred to the Eye Center last fall, but have received kind and comprehensive care from Dr. Orren and all staff. This includes support for my condition as well as the purchase of my prescription eyeglasses 🤓
My appointment went very well. Everyone I came in contact with was very helpful and friendly. Always a great experience. Thank you.My appointment on May 6 for my eye exam for new glasses went extremely well, Dr. Jarrett explained everything to me and answered all my questions. Everyone in the office is very helpful and friendly. Keep up the great work. Thank you.
The receptionist was extremely helpful with my insurance. She went above and beyond to help me, and I’m loving the glasses picked out. The selection was amazing.
I remember taking my mom to the Eye Center of PA a few years before she passed away. Little did I realize I would be going there myself years later!When my eye doctor diagnosed me with cataracts in both eyes, I did not hesitate to tell him I wanted to go to the Eye Center of Central PA. I remembered how wonderful everyone was to my mom and I can honestly say I was not disappointed with my care over the past 2 months!I highly recommend Dr. Spencer Onishi, along with Donnel Apuzzio, MSHS, PA-C and the staff at the Eye Center of Central PA! From my initial consultation to my 2 cataract surgeries, along with follow-up appointments, their level of care and professionalism was outstanding.Dr. Onishi was so kind and patient as well as highly skilled. He took time to explain every step of the procedure and answered all my questions. He even came to see me before both surgeries! I was so grateful for all his support and advice to help me recover from my surgeries. My vision is so much clearer and I can see without my glasses! I can honestly say, I was at ease throughout the entire procedure.Donnel Apuzzio, MSHS, PA-C was also so kind and caring as she examined me during my follow-up appointments the day after my surgeries. She is very skilled and also took time to answer all my questions, as well as giving me good advice that helped me in the recovery process.Along with Dr. Onishi and Donnel Apuzzio, MSHS, PA-C, I also appreciated the care I received from all the nurses. Everyone was so kind to me and supportive of one another; they are truly an amazing team!Thank you all so much!

Follow-Up
At The Eye Center of Central PA, patients are able to receive their contacts quickly and conveniently, typically within as little as four business days. Individuals who get contact lenses will need to attend a follow-up appointment in about six weeks to make sure their lenses fit well and are functioning normally. Even after patients receive vision correction help with contact lenses or glasses, it's still essential to attend yearly or biennial appointments to have their eyes thoroughly examined for any changes in their refractive error and to ensure that their eyes are still healthy. During these appointments, we will assess the overall health of the eyes, as well as the patient's prescription to see if it needs to be adjusted.
