HOW IT ALL BEGAN
Specs4U Centurion was established in 2005 with the aim of being a dynamic practice, where you are treated as royalty. In 2016 we changed our name to Specs4Centurion. At Specs4Centurion, you can expect excellent quality and personal service at an affordable price. Our practice strives to combine state-of-the-art technology with clinical education and excellence. We offer professional service in a family-centric setting. Your vision and eye health are of paramount concern to us.
Optometrists are always accused of not giving market related prices, this is exactly what motivated us to start our practice. As healthcare professionals, we pride ourselves in offering professional personalised eye care. In addition, we negotiate with our suppliers to ensure that we offer competitive prices. We have hundreds of frames to choose from, brands like Elle, Adidas, Silhouette, Swarovski, Just Cavalli, Nike, Ted Baker, Ray Ban, Oakley and many more. We aim to make you look good… pun intended.
We do our utmost to ensure the experience you have when choosing a frame and lenses is easy, fun and affordable. It is imperative to select frames which are suitable for the particular purpose and the lens type in order to ensure maximum optical performance from the spectacles. All our frames have at least one year guarantee and will be replaced if manufacturer negligence can be proven. From the meticulous way we select the eyewear we carry, to the skill and care with which we conduct our renowned comprehensive eye examinations, we consistently dispense trendsetting spectacles.
We affiliate ourselves with reputable suppliers to offer you quality goods with excellent warranties and after sale service. We only make use of the highest quality optical lenses and to guarantee complete customer satisfaction, we never prescribe generic lenses. We have access to a wide range of lens suppliers, varying from standard lenses, for those who have limited medical aid allowances or financial constraints, to premium lenses. Our lenses are manufactured by an exclusive French manufacturing company Essilor – renowned for their intensive research before they launch a new product. We will replace your lenses if you are not happy with the lenses or coatings. Thanks to our onsite Essilog system, we can order and track your spectacles without inconvenience to you as you keep your spectacles while we manufacture the lenses. Every person is unique and so is their eyesight. That’s why we understand that multi-focal lenses are not suitable to everyone. We are happy to change the lenses to either bifocal or single vision lenses, in the same frame at no additional cost to you.
Our team of well-trained, experienced and skilful optometrists and dispensers will provide you with the correct spectacles and the ideal fit. To achieve this, we consider your lifestyle, career and your hobbies. Our dispenser will explain the details of the lenses that you need to make them perfect for your eyes, lifestyle and interests. Our optometrists and dispensing opticians strive to satisfy your individual needs. Please discuss your needs and problems with our optometrists during your eye test.
A comprehensive individual eye test at Specs4Centurion takes about 45 minutes to complete. Your optometrist will explain the condition and health of your eyes in detail. At the forefront of technology, we offer advanced diagnostic equipment, including fundus cameras capturing photographs of the retina. We use digital equipment to test your eyes, measure ocular pressure, colour vision and overall health of your eyes.
Our front staff has attended and passed the Optometric Assistant’s Course credited by the South African Optometric Association. They are highly efficient and motivated individuals and receive on-going training to deliver an excellent standard of service.
Our main goal is to help people in need with eye care, irrespective of their financial position. We are committed to offer you QUALITY, PERSONAL SERVICE and EXCEPTIONAL VALUE. To make our customers see, look and feel better! As Gandhi said: “Be the change you wish to see in the world.”
Over the years we have cultivated strong relationships with top eye surgeons and doctors. We continue to grow and receive many referrals from ophthalmologists, GPs, teachers, occupational therapists, the local community and people from afar that seek our more specialized services. We pride ourselves in our friendly and methodical service. Our team works in sync to give you the all-round positive experience.
