MANDELA FAMILY VISITS VISION

We were honoured to be visited by three generation of the Mandela family in June 2009. Winnie Madikizela, Zindzi and her son, Zondwa had eye examinations at our Cresta branch, performed by John Schubach. The story was featured in the Citizen on 18 June 2009.

Zindizi is the patron of the Vision in Sight Trust, the fundraiser body of the South African Optometric Association (SAOA). They hope to raise awareness that regular eye examinations will bring about early detection of eye diseases that are treatable and will prevent permanent blindness.
