Frequently, utilizing the newest technologies in ophthalmics, Dr. Klein is able to enhance his patients’ vision for specific tasks such as night driving, working on computers, or reading. Nathan Klein O.D. is one of Florida’s foremost experts in scleral contact lenses which can be fit for the vast majority of patients who were previously unhappy or uncomfortable with contact lenses. These lenses provide sharper vision, greater lens wearing time, and easier handling, being especially helpful for those with dry eyes, keratoconus, irregular astigmatism, and Sjogrens Syndrome. Additionally, Dr. Klein has had stellar success with pediatric myopia management to slow and minimize the progression of myopia via individualized options including specialty contact lenses (MiSight), low-dose atropine eye drops, and myopia-control spectacles (Essilor Stellest lenses).
