Ophthalmology

Clear sight, expert care — eye examinations and specialist eye services.

Ask a Question

Your eyes are easy to take for granted until something changes. Blurred vision, headaches, strain from screens, or difficulty seeing at night are all worth having checked properly.

Our ophthalmology service provides thorough eye examinations and vision testing, along with assessment and management of common eye conditions — with referral to further specialist care when it's needed.

Eye health is also closely tied to conditions like diabetes and high blood pressure, so regular eye checks form an important part of the whole-body care we offer at Ekhaya.

What this includes

  • Comprehensive eye examinations
  • Vision and visual-acuity testing
  • Assessment of common eye conditions
  • Diabetic and hypertensive eye screening
  • Advice on glasses and vision correction
  • Referral for surgical or advanced eye care

Who it's for

Anyone with changing vision, eye discomfort or strain — and patients with diabetes or high blood pressure who need regular eye screening.

Common questions

How often should I have my eyes tested?

For most adults every one to two years, and more often if you have diabetes, high blood pressure or an existing eye condition.

Do you test children's eyes?

Yes — vision testing is important for children, particularly where there are difficulties at school.

Can you help with diabetic eye screening?

Yes. Diabetes can affect the eyes, so we screen for changes and refer promptly when needed.
