Optometrist

Fozia Khan

Optometrist · CzaEyez – eyecare excellence

HPCSA registration OP 0033901 · Practice no. 0125806

Fozia Khan is an optometrist whose career has taken her to patients across South Africa and beyond. Along the way she has seen how often poor eyesight, and even preventable sight loss, comes down to one thing: never having had the opportunity to have an eye test. Today, general health conditions can also put your eyesight at risk, which is why regular eye examinations are an essential part of looking after your health.

For Fozia, the greatest reward is not only helping people see clearly, but making sure every patient enjoys a professional, caring experience, from the first eye test through to the aftercare that follows. That commitment is at the heart of CzaEyez: eyecare excellence.
