Family Eye Care

De Smedt Optometrists was established in 1983 and has grown into a legendary leader in the eye care industry in Pretoria. Now a true family practice, run by Dr. de Smedt and his two daughters, we are passionate about the vision and eye health of the entire family, from baby to granny.

During our renowned in-depth examinations we play with hi-tech instruments to help us look deeper into your eyes to assist with the evaluation of the health of your eyes as well as the rest of your body and, where applicable, to fit specialized contact lenses.

We aim to provide excellent eye care so that every patient can
