CLOSED: WIN an optical hamper from Optique worth R2,599

When it comes to South African demand for eye care, it can be considered quite unique, as 75% of people cannot afford proper eye care which is quite alarming. According to research, the average price of an eye test in South Africa is R550.00; therefore, if you earn R7500.00 per month, you are part of the top 10% wealthiest people. This means even then, to get your eyes tested, you have to pay 7% of your salary just to find out the status of your eye health. 

Leon van Vuuren, 33, CEO and Founder shares 5 reasons why Optique is unique in its business approach, and your go-to optometrists.

What makes us unique is that we only have 1 all-inclusive price. For any pair of glasses. Does not matter your prescription or lens type as determined by our optometrists. 

We have in-depth knowledge of our industry and cannot expect you to know what is best amongst the thousands of offerings in the market. That is why we do the homework for you and partnered with a single global leading supplier of spectacles lenses and contact lenses. 

Having trusted Optique with your eye care, you can be assured that you have received the best possible eye care, at the best possible rate.

Our eye tests are definitely worth much more than R99, but the other 80% we do not charge is our way of giving our time, money, and talents to promote eye care awareness. 

As an inspired, proudly South African organization, we are aware of the struggles many faces to access quality healthcare, and even more so, quality eye care. 

Getting a new pair of glasses should be as simple as ordering a cup of coffee, and with Optique it’s as easy as doing just that with their in-store Costa coffee kiosks. 

Whether it glasses, contact lenses or simply an eye health check-up, Optique is your one-stop shop for all your eye care needs.
