Yeah, you can get fisheye adaptors that screw into the filter thread.
Common ones give you 0.8x, 0.6x and 0.42x the focal length of the lens.
I've got a 0.42x adaptor, which screws onto a 52mm thread, and on my
28mm lens it turns it into a circle-frame fisheye, with decent results.
It cost me #20. I don't think they're too hard to find. Main trouble
with it is it's such fun that I've been badly over-using it.
