Eye Surgeons &
Consultant Ophthalmologists
At The Eye Surgery, we specialise in the diagnosis and treatment of cataracts, glaucoma, pterygium, retinal conditions, and offer advanced laser vision correction and a range of surgical and non-surgical eye treatments.
The eyes are the organs that provide vision and are one of the most important ways we communicate with one another. It provides a connection between the outside world and our body. The eyes are sensitive, and without proper care and protection, complications may occur that could lead to loss of eyesight. Fortunately, advances in technology and treatment for vision disorders have come a long way in treating eye conditions.
Our team has long been recognised both in South Africa and the rest of the African continent for providing high quality eye care with a full spectrum of treatments, from prescribing glasses and contact lenses to complex and delicate eye surgery using the latest technological equipment, all in a relaxed professional environment.
Eye Conditions We Treat
Dr. Zoran Aleksic, FCS (SA) Ophthalmologist and eye surgeon, specialises in CATARACT and LASER REFRACTIVE SURGERY such as LASIK / PRK laser refractive surgery for short or far sightedness, presbyopia and astigmatism.
Visit Dr. Zoran Aleksic for the diagnosis and treatment of the following eye disorders and eye diseases:
Cataract surgery is a procedure in which the eye's cloudy natural lens is removed and, in most cases, replaced with a clear artificial intraocular lens (IOL) to restore vision. It is one of the safest and most successful surgical procedures performed today, helping patients regain clearer vision and improve their quality of life.
Glaucoma is a group of eye conditions that damage the optic nerve, often as a result of increased pressure within the eye. If left untreated, glaucoma can lead to progressive and irreversible vision loss, making early diagnosis and treatment essential. Open-angle glaucoma is the most common form and typically develops slowly without noticeable symptoms in its early stages.
If you're looking to reduce your dependence on glasses and readers, multifocal intraocular lenses (IOLs) may be an excellent option. These advanced lenses can be used during cataract surgery or Refractive Lens Exchange (RLE) to provide clear vision at multiple distances.
Age-related macular degeneration (AMD) is a common eye condition that affects the macula, the central part of the retina responsible for sharp, detailed vision. It is one of the leading causes of vision loss in people over the age of 50 and can make activities such as reading, driving, and recognising faces more difficult.
Laser vision correction, such as LASIK is a procedure designed to reduce or eliminate the need for glasses or contact lenses by correcting common refractive errors such as short-sightedness (myopia), long-sightedness (hyperopia), presbyopia and astigmatism.
A pterygium is a benign, wedge-shaped growth of tissue that develops on the white of the eye and may gradually extend onto the cornea. While it is usually harmless, a pterygium can cause redness, irritation, and blurred vision, and may require treatment if it continues to grow or affects sight.

How Often should you visit an Ophthalmologist?
Regular comprehensive eye examinations are essential for maintaining lifelong eye health and detecting eye conditions before symptoms develop. The American Academy of Ophthalmology recommends the following schedule for adults at average risk:
-
Ages 20–29: At least one comprehensive eye examination.
-
Ages 30–39: At least two comprehensive eye examinations.
-
Ages 40–64: Every 2 to 4 years.
-
Age 65 and older: Every 1 to 2 years.
Some individuals may require more frequent eye examinations. This includes those with diabetes, glaucoma, a family history of eye disease, previous eye injuries or surgery, or other medical conditions that increase the risk of vision problems. Your ophthalmologist can recommend an examination schedule tailored to your individual needs.
