Description:
Medical Forum Theatre – the Eastern Cape’s first private day hospital – has a longstanding history within the metro. Founded during the 1960’s by Dr Johan du Toit (now retired), its legacy continues to avail general theatre space to other medical practitioners for day case surgeries. The team of medical professionals at the Eye and Laser Institute set out to create a Centre of Excellence for Ophthalmology care in the Eastern Cape through the Eye and Laser Institute, with a strong focus on day surgery.

“The entire value chain is focused on efficiency and quality nursing care,” said Dr Andries Marais, managing director. Uncompromising service and high quality nursing care ensures that patients are discharged within three to four hours, depending on the procedure. In addition to the ease of not having to stay for a long period of time, patients also find the experience of entering the Medical Forum Theatre less daunting than a large hospital.

🌞 Protect Your Child’s Eyes from UV Damage!

Children’s eyes are naturally more susceptible to UV exposure because their eyes allow more light to enter. They also spend more time outdoors than adults, often without proper sun protection. UV damage to the eyes is cumulative and mostly irreversible, which is why it’s so important to protect young eyes early.

According to ZEISS Vision Care:
• UV exposure can cause serious eye conditions such as cataracts later in life.
• Eyes can be affected by UV radiation even on cloudy days, and exposure is often highest in the early morning and late afternoon, not just at midday.

💡 Tips to Protect Your Child’s Eyes:
• Always wear sunglasses with 99–100% UVA and UVB protection.
• Choose glasses that wrap around the face to block UV rays from the sides, can’t break easily, and don’t have sharp edges.
• Use a wide-brimmed hat or cap to protect from sunlight entering the top of the glasses.
• Make sure the lenses bear the CE mark and the UV-400 label
• If your child wears prescription glasses, UV-blocking lenses or prescription sunglasses are a must.

👀 Protecting your child’s eyes now helps preserve their vision for life!
