Moffatt Optical
Boardwalk Inkwazi Shopping Centre
October is Eye Care Awareness Month and Moffatt Optical, in conjunction with ActionCOACH, is offering local business owners a free eye screening assessment and a complimentary business assessment.
To kick-start the campaign, staff of the Zululand Observer were invited to have their eyes tested at Moffatt Optical in the Boardwalk Inkwazi Shopping Centre on October 1.
Optometrists Corliza Landsberg and Sanele Buthelezi conducted the tests.
They tested visual acuity (the ability of the eye to see fine detail) with an autorefractor, as well as a retinal examination with the help of a fundus camera. This test detects eye conditions such as glaucoma, cataracts, diabetes, high blood pressure and foreign objects.
‘We do not only test for glasses – this is a primary health check,’ says Corliza.
Sanele agrees. ‘The eyes are truly the windows of the body.’
Both optometrists agree that the most rewarding aspects of their work is to improve people’s quality of life.
The passionate and bubbly Corliza Landsberg has 23 years’ experience in optometry. After obtaining her qualification in optometry at the Rand Afrikaans University (now University of Johannesburg) she settled down in Richards Bay to start her own practice.
Having qualified as an optometrist at UKZN, Sanele Buthelezi has been in the industry for 10 years. The charismatic optometrist has travelled across South Africa and in 2016 joined Moffatt Optical in Richards Bay.
‘It feels good to see the smile on a person’s face when they put on their new glasses for the first time,’ he says.
Sanele’s other passions include mathematics and singing. He is the proud father of an eight-year-old boy.
In her spare time, you will find Corliza wearing a helmet and cruising somewhere on a motorbike or aeroplane.
