Dankie vir al die ondersteuning tydens ons Covid tydperk. Daar is nooit ‘n goeie tyd om siek te word nie, maar dankbaar sover dat Thelma, Wanda en ek weer op die been is. Ons vurige gebede bly by Helen, my regterhand en vriendin die 7 jaar wat ons in Middelburg bly, wat ernstig siek in Hospitaal lê. Ons gedagtes en gebede bly by haar in hierdie tyd en haar familie(wat soos my eie familie voel).
Ons is reeds oop in Colesberg, maar my ure gaan meer beperk wees a.g.v fisiese kragte wat nog nie heeltemal terug is nie. Op hierdie stadium net in oggende oop van 9 tot 1uur - tot verdere kennisgewing.
Ons maak oop in Middelburg op die 12de Julie en hou ons ure ook eers net vir oggende totdat ons sterker voel.
Ons het alles gesaniteer, so daar hoef nie gevrees te word oor aansteeklikheid nie, maar ons tref in elk geval alle voorsorg.
Dankie vir julle geduld in hierdie tyd en ek gaan my bes doen om steeds beste moontlike diens vir al my kliënte te gee.
Pas julle op en bly gesond en d**k ook aan soveel ander wat deur soortgelyke omstandighede gaan.

We are open again from the 12th of July. We apologise for any inconvenience caused by closure of practice. Most of our staff are on their feet again, but due to health reasons we will only be open in mornings untill further notice. Our prayers are with Helen who is still seriously ill in hospital.
Thank you for your loyal support in this difficult time and we will strive to give our best to our customers.
We have sanitized and will keep covid protocols.
Stay safe and healthy and our thoughts are with everybody going through similar circumstances.

Interesting ‘eye’facts about animals🦈🐝

29/07/2020

Ons is baie hartseer om ons Oogkundige Ilna Marais te groet. Sy was een en ‘n half jaar deel van ons span. Haar pragtige geaardheid het haar in al die Colesbergers se harte laat kruip. Dankie vir jou goeie werk-ons gaan jou baie mis!
Christine Jacobs, ons vorige Oogkundige kom weer ons uithelp op Dinsdae en ekself kom deur van Middelburg op Donderdae. Dae mag verander in toekoms.
Dankie aan al ons kliënte/pasiënte/vriende, vir julle volgehoue ondersteuning.

101 amazing eye facts

Our eyes are one of the most fascinating and complex parts of the body. How much do we really know about them, and how they work? We rely on them every day, yet we don’t give them much thought until something goes wrong and our vision is affected. We’ve listed 101 interesting facts that you may not know about eyes!

1.In a very basic form, eyes are thought to have first developed in animals around 550 million years ago!
2.You actually see with your brain, not your eyes. Our eyes function like a camera, capturing light and sending data back to the brain.
3.You see things upside down - it is your brain which turns the image the right way up.
4.In a single second, it’s possible to blink five times.
5.You are likely to blink more often when you are talking.
6.The eye is the fastest muscle in your body – hence why when something happens quickly, we say ‘in the blink of an eye!’
7.A blink typically lasts 100-150 milliseconds.
8.The human eye can function at 100% at any given moment, without needing to rest.
9.Red-eye in photos is caused by light from the flash bouncing off the capillaries in your eyes.
10.If the human eye was a digital camera, it would have 576 megapixels.
11.On average, you will blink approximately 4,200,000 times in a single year.
12.We have two eyeballs in order to give us depth perception – comparing two images allows us to determine how far away an object is from us.
13.Eyes heal quickly. With proper care, it takes only about 48 hours to repair a minor corneal scratch.
14.The world’s most common eye colour is brown.
15.The first blue-eyed person is said to have lived 6,000-10,000 years ago.
16.Even if no one in the past few generations of your family had blue or green eyes, these recessive traits can still appear in later generations.
17.Blue-eyed people share a common ancestor with every other blue-eyed person in the world.
18.During a sight test, health conditions including diabetes and high blood pressure can be detected.
19.Diabetes is the number one cause of blindness in adults in the UK.
20.Research has found that a tie tied too tightly can increase the risk of glaucoma in men.
