Madale Scheepers:
I am an Optometrist for 16 years, owning my own practice for more than 11 years. I graduated at University of Johannesburg in 2006. I did my post graduate diploma in sports vision in 2010 at University of Johannesburg. I am currently busy with my ocular therapeutics course and my passion extends to helping kids with learning disabilities, thus I am a Stark Griffen dyslexia specialist as well.
My passion for optometry started at the young age of 7 years when an optometrist saw that I was born with a congenital cataract – which was removed in 1991. Unfortunately, at the age of 7 years no patching really helped and I am now an “amblyopic, monocular optometrist”. All I ever wanted to do was “changing life’s through vision”! For obvious reasons, I love kids and feel early detection can change their lives, the way mine was changed! I am a proud mom of two beautiful young kids and the wife of my awesome, supporting husband Coenie for more than 10 years!
