Comprehensive Eye Care for All Ages in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania


At Fox Chase Family Eye Care, we offer comprehensive eye care services for patients of all ages, from young children to seniors. For children, we specialize in Myopia Management and Orthokeratology (Ortho-K), helping to slow the progression of nearsightedness and protect their vision for the future. Myopia in children can lead to serious eye problems later in life, but with early intervention, our doctors can help mitigate these risks.

For seniors in Philadelphia and the surrounding areas, we provide expert management of ocular diseases such as glaucoma, macular degeneration, and diabetic retinopathy. With years of experience, Dr. Schechter and Dr. Hansen deliver compassionate care to help our aging patients maintain healthy vision and a high quality of life. No matter your age, we are dedicated to providing the best eye care for every stage of life.

As part of our commitment to advanced eye care, Fox Chase Family Eye Care is proud to be a Scleral Lens & Specialty Contact Lens Center.

We also offer Neurolenses, an innovative treatment for patients suffering from headaches, dizziness, and eye strain caused by visual misalignment. Many people experience discomfort due to digital eye strain or problems with eye alignment, but Neurolenses offer relief by correcting these issues. If you live in Philadelphia or the surrounding areas and suffer from these symptoms, our experienced team is here to help with tailored solutions that fit your unique visual needs.
