Dr Dony Mathew - Cape Town Eye Centre

09/09/2026

Behind every corneal transplant is a story of hope. For people living with corneal disease, the impact can reach into every part of life. From studying, working, independence and family life.

Dr Dony Mathew takes us through the advances in corneal surgery, the techniques making more procedures possible, and the growing role of tissue banks in South Africa.

Behind every successful cornea transplant is a tissue donor. Someone, or their family, who made the meaningful decision to give the gift of sight.

👁️ WHAT IS A CATARACT?
A cataract occurs when the natural lens inside your eye becomes cloudy, causing your vision to become blurred or hazy.

Common Symptoms:
✅ Blurred or cloudy vision
✅ Difficulty driving at night
✅ Increased sensitivity to light and glare
✅ Colours appearing faded or yellowed
✅ Frequent changes in glasses prescription

Cataracts usually develop gradually and are a common part of ageing. Fortunately, cataract surgery is a safe and effective procedure that can restore clear vision.

📞 If you're experiencing any of these symptoms, schedule an eye examination with Dr Dony Mathew.

👁️ Keratoconus Awareness 👁️

Keratoconus is a condition that causes the cornea to thin and bulge into a cone shape, leading to blurred or distorted vision.

Early diagnosis and treatment can help slow progression and protect your sight.

If you’ve noticed frequent prescription changes, blurry vision, or increased sensitivity to light, it may be time for a comprehensive eye examination.

Ons oë doen baie meer as om ons te help sien. Tydens ’n oogondersoek kan ’n oogspesialis dikwels vroeë tekens van gesondheidsprobleme soos diabetes, hoë bloeddruk en selfs neurologiese toestande raaksien.
