It is a misconception to believe that we only need to see an optometrist when there is something wrong with the way we see. Many eye conditions for children and adults are asymptomatic – meaning you won’t know you have it unless a thorough examination is conducted. Early diagnosis means early treatment and a better chance of managing vision loss. Our aim is to make eye care accessible and affordable to everyone.

St John South Africa offers optometric services provided by healthcare professionals who specialise in vision care and correction, prescribing glasses or contact lenses, and diagnosing and treating common eye conditions like nearsightedness or astigmatism.
