The claims processing of some of the Medical Aid Schemes can be confusing. Our Hospital team works closely with the patient, main member and medical aid to make the process as smooth as possible for all parties concerned.

So we want to reassure you that if there is a snag in processing your claim with your medical aid, we will contact you. Sometimes the statement a member of a medical aid scheme can access does not reflect the latest progress in a claim. Please don’t be alarmed by an outstanding balance if we haven't been in touch. You are welcome to reach out to the Doctors suite or the Hospital staff for assistance if any aspect of the claim administration is unclear.

Our telephone system is working. During working hours, you can call us on 033 812 2020. One of the Ophthalmologists is always on call and so, in case of an eye emergency, they can be contacted on 033 812 2300.

Bonitas and Fedhealth, under the Medscheme banner, introduced a new Cataract Procedure Network on 1 April 2025. This may be a cause for concern and confusion amongst members especially with the change taking place halfway through the benefit year.

We believe it is important for each patient to retain their relationship with their Ophthalmologist/ Doctor and as such the Pietermaritzburg Eye Hospital will assist with accessing care for those who are affected by this change through liaising with members, the Doctors and the Schemes.

In early 2019 Jessica Emmanuel informed me that she had identified a young lady to appoint to a vacancy in Theatre. My first impression of this humble and respectful lady, Ataya, was everything soft and kind and considerate. What was not immediately apparent was the degree of insight, organisational skills, attention to detail and high expectations and goals.

In the 5 years since she became a permanent “fixture” she has demonstrated her ability to speak up at times when needed, that you can be feminine and strong simultaneously, and that a commitment to a goal over time will undoubtedly lead to success.

Ataya’s commitment to the Theatre team, to the Doctors and to the Hospital is steadfast and unwavering. We thank you so much for what you have helped us achieve over the past 5 years.

2019 introduced us to another one of our team members, Tracy, but it wasn’t until March 2020 that she came on board. A mere 20 odd days later and the Hospital closed it’s doors due to COVID19.

Since then, a pivotal role in the general operations has been filled with efficiency, personalised engagements and an incredible accuracy. The network of service providers, general suppliers and obtaining resources from wherever possible has help us all do our work daily. This has been achieved through close relationships with a host of people. The dressing up days are ALL her doing though!

Tracy has developed a rich connection with many people over the past 5 years which have benefited this team, Doctors, Hospital and community. We appreciate your tenacity, authenticity and energy in all that you do.

We are so pleased you have been able to support Le-kesha in her journey. An incredible young lady with so much to teach others about resilience and tenacity.

The family is rejoicing because, since the operation, Le-Kesha Oakes's eyes are working well enough for her to read, with spectacles, after she had to stop attending school due to her inability to see.

As we reflected on the journey to our 10 000th patient milestone, we asked our recent patients to share about the difference the procedures made in their lives. Here are a few of the responses.

Yesterday we touched the life of our 10000th patient!

The 10000th patient had a procedure performed by Dr Sanjay Lalloo supported by the skilled Hospital team. Hospital Manager, Allison Deysel, thanked the entire Doctor and Hospital team for the individual contributions made to reaching the 10000th patient milestone and said “It has been a privilege to have impacted on 10000 lives since we opened on 1 March 2018. As we reflect on this achievement however we look forward to providing our unique brand of Expert Treatment and Exceptional Care for many more years to come.”

“I can drive more confidently both at night and when there is poor visibility. I can exercise better judgement and get where I want to go”

Life gets better when you can do things independently and safely.

The things that bring meaning to your life.

At the Pietermaritzburg Eye Hospital we see the difference a procedure can make, on a daily basis. That’s why we do what we do.

We strive to help you be the best you can be.

We commit to Expert Treatment and Exceptional Care.
