We conduct comprehensive exams which allow us to accurately detect eye disease or other abnormalities early, often before they present any symptoms. We also carry a wide selection of designer frames and sunglasses in our optical shop in order to fulfill the individual needs of each of our patients. Our mission is to provide our patients with optimal eye care to insure the health of their eyes and the quality of their vision.

We accept Visa, MasterCard and Discover credit cards, as well as cash and checks. We make every effort to keep down the cost of your optometric care. You can help by paying at the time of your visit. To place an order for eyewear, a deposit of half the cost of the glasses or contacts is required. The balance is payable in full when glasses or contacts are taken home. Our billing coordinator will be happy to discuss any insurance or billing questions you may have.
We accept many major insurance plans, including Geisinger, Health America, Highmark, Medicare, Vision Benefits of America, and EyeMed. To find out if we accept your plan, please call our office. If you plan to submit a claim to your insurance company, please ask for a superreceipt. The superreceipt form contains all the information needed from the doctor for your insurance company to process your claim.
No insurance company attempts to cover all optometric costs. Some companies pay a percentage of the charge and others pay fixed allowances for certain procedures. It is your responsibility to pay any deductible amount, co-insurance, or any other balance not paid by your insurance company.
We will be happy to help you receive the benefits to which you are entitled, however, please remember that your agreement is a contract between you and the insurance company.
Our office is located at 113 South Spring Street, Bellefonte, Pennsylvania 16823 with parking available in the municipal lot across the street. We are easily accessible by the CATA public transportation buses. Please enter your zip code or city, state below for door-to-door directions.
