Babies and Young Children
As parents of a child born with underdeveloped eyes or retinoblastoma, support and information are vital.
We are here to provide that. Join us and connect with other families—some of the babies we helped decades ago now have children of their own. Our support groups offer invaluable sharing of experiences and encouragement for everyone involved.
Assisting your children with artificial eyes is crucial for fostering confidence, enhancing self-esteem and improving their quality of life. It enables them to engage fully in social activities and educational opportunities.

We are pleased to offer monthly clinics at Groote Schuur and Tygerberg Hospitals in Cape Town.
If you would prefer to visit us at one of these hospitals instead of our private practice, we encourage you to contact our reception team.
They will be happy to provide you with more information and assist you in scheduling an appointment.
