When vision starts to feel like guesswork
Tired eyes after screens, text that is harder to read, or glasses that no longer feel right are not problems to rush through a retail queue. You need enough time to explain what you are experiencing and understand what comes next.
- Are your eyes tired after a day of screen use?
- Are signs, text or faces becoming harder to see clearly?
- Do your current glasses feel uncomfortable or no longer quite right?
- Are you uncertain about which lens or frame option you actually need?
- Have previous appointments left you feeling rushed or confused?
These questions are prompts, not a diagnosis. An examination is how we find out what is going on.

Meet Rosa van der Walt
Rosa is an HPCSA-registered optometrist (OP0047600, practice 0393401). She sees one patient at a time at The Village Optom in Glen Austin so the examination, your questions, and the next step can share the same hour.
She talks through findings in plain language and keeps quoting in parts: frame, lenses, and optional extras. She is an optometrist, not an ophthalmologist, surgeon, or medical doctor. This practice does not perform surgery.

First time I have been here. No waiting time once one has an appointment. Service is very good and one feels comfortable during the eye test.
Would really recommend her! Love love my glasses and we are starting a contact lens journey….
