Nestled in the heart of Paarl at Shop 25, Drakenstein Sentrum, Lustigan Road, Reza Ferreira Boutique Optometrists has been delivering exceptional eye care to the Western Cape community for over three decades. What began as a single practice in 1993 has grown into a respected boutique optometry brand trusted by families, professionals, and eyewear enthusiasts across Paarl, Wellington, Franschhoek, Stellenbosch, and the wider Drakenstein region.
At the core of the practice is a simple but deeply held belief: every patient deserves time, attention, and care that goes beyond a prescription. Appointments are never hurried. Patients are known by name. And every clinical decision is guided by a genuine commitment to the best possible outcome for each individual who walks through the door.
The practice is founded and led by Reza Ferreira, an optometrist with a Bachelor of Optometry from the University of Johannesburg and post-graduate training in ocular disease and pharmaceutical application. Reza holds specialist certification from the Stark-Griffin Dyslexia Academy, enabling her to conduct dyslexia determining evaluations for children with learning difficulties, a service offered by very few optometrists in the Western Cape. With over 30 years in practice, her clinical depth and passion for patient outcomes remain the foundation on which the entire team operates.
Alongside Reza, the Paarl team includes a second qualified optometrist, a dispensing optician with more than 20 years of experience across leading optical companies, including Carl Zeiss Vision, Essilor, and Cooper Vision, and a team of skilled optical assistants dedicated to providing exceptional service at every touchpoint.
The practice offers a comprehensive suite of eye care services, all delivered using advanced diagnostic technology in a calm and welcoming environment. Services include comprehensive eye tests, driver’s licence eye tests, contact lens assessments, binocular vision testing, dyslexia evaluations, retinal health assessments, fundus photography, glaucoma eye pressure testing, diabetic retinopathy screening, dry eye treatment, eye allergy treatment, spectacle repairs, and lens cutting, fitting and transfer. Whether a patient is visiting for a routine annual eye test or requires specialist assessment, the same standard of thorough, personalised care applies.
For those with an eye for design, the practice houses one of the most extensive collections of luxury and designer eyewear in the Western Cape. Frames and sunglasses from Cartier, Tom Ford, Gucci, Prada, Versace, Mont Blanc, Oakley, Maui Jim, Ray-Ban, Porsche Design, and more are available in-practice, carefully curated to suit a wide range of styles, face shapes, and lifestyles. The team takes genuine pleasure in helping patients find eyewear that expresses their personality as much as it serves their vision.
Situated at Drakenstein Sentrum opposite Boschenmeer Golf Estate, the practice benefits from easy access off Lustigan Road, ample on-site parking, and wheelchair accessible facilities. Medical aid is accepted, and the team is happy to assist patients in understanding their benefits ahead of their appointment.
