Meet Aretha Coetzee

Aretha graduated with a Bachelor's degree in Optometry at the University of Johannesburg almost two decades ago. Her practice caters for people from different age groups and will ensure that the client's needs are met.

One thing I always wanted to do was to build strong relationships with my clients. I think that nowadays everybody is in a rush and optometrists don't have the time to sit down and chat with their clients.

I always wanted to open my own practice. I want to give people experienced and professional service without rushing them into making poor decisions.

Our Story

Regardless of your age or physical health, it is important to have regular eye exams. During a complete eye exam, your eye doctor will not only determine your prescription for eyeglasses or contact lenses, but will also check your eyes for common eye diseases, assess how your eyes work together as a team and evaluate your eyes as an indicator of your overall health.

At Aretha Coetzee Optometrists we go beyond prescriptions to deliver thorough, caring service that protects your vision for the long term. For family check-ups, drivers licence screenings, glaucoma monitoring, or finding the perfect sunglasses, we're here to make your eye health our priority.
