Laser Surgery
The main objective of laser eye surgery is to correct refractive errors and reduce your dependency on glasses or contact lenses.

EXCELLENT Based on 20 reviews Posted on Google Shanta MaharajTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I have rated before but this practice deserves another rating. I am delighted with my corrected vision and yesterday I had my one month post op vision examination. It was brilliant. An aspect Id like to mention is the way billing is done. It makes the process of claiming gap cover smooth with absolutely everything in detail. From admin to professional opthamology, this is by far one of the best Ive come across. I will always remember my two experiences pre, in, and post theatre as being most comfortable. Brilliant brillian brilliant Dr in every way.Posted on Google Daniela Van JaarsveldtTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google.

Although I was very weary of this procedure I decided to go ahead. Dr Beatty and staff were amazing. I was made to feel at ease from the outset. The difference it has made in my life as a sportswoman is unbelievable. Thank you to each and everyone including the hospital staff for the interest and care I received.Posted on Google Gerhard VosTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. From day 1 it was professional service .Dr Beatty delivered on what he promised.Posted on Google Rory MageeTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. A really phenomenal, attentive opthamologist. I'd been struggling with dry-eye/inflammation and after having visited 4x separate opthamologists, undergoing various treatments (some at very great expense, none of which had any lasting impact), Dr. Beatty was eventually able to help work with and diagnose the issue well and got me to a solution that is working better than anything else I'd tried before.Posted on Google Duncan ViljoenTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. First class experience! Dr Beatty and the team are definitely highly recommended.Posted on Google Linda BrownTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I went to Dr. Jame Beatty to have cataracts on my eyes removed and Lens replacement done, what an excellent operation with no pain. The staff where very helpful and friendly. I can highly recommend Dr. Beatty.

Pleased to confirm that I had both my eyes operated for cataracts. This was the best decision ever going for this procedure.

Ons is reeds jare pasiente by dr Beatty en ons het intussen afgetree en verhuis. Steeds ry ons vir ons besoeke daarheen en sien elke keer uit om daar te kuier!

I wanted you to know that I got my eyes checked and it came out as 20/20! You did a great job. The guy who checked my eyes said whoever did it really knew what they were doing :) Anyway, thanks for doing such a good job! Glad you were able to open up just in time before we left for the states.

I will definitely recommend dr Beatty. I am so happy with my Lasik.

I have been a patient of Dr Beatty since 25 April 2013. I then followed him after moving practice to the new building in Paardevlei and I have not looked back.
At Somerset Eye Clinic, vision becomes a reality. Though advanced imaging and state-of-the-art technology, Dr Beatty diagnosed my eye problem timeously, thereby arrested the disease in it's earliest stages. Dr Beatty also practices the most sophisticated surgical techniques for the treatment of patients and remains on par with international research and developments in the field of ophthalmology.
The dedicated team of ophthalmic assistants and administrators are handpicked to optimise practice management, functioning and patient care. Visiting Dr Beatty's practice feels like dealing with trusted, loyal family. Dr Beatty's gentle, patient, kind and caring manner, fosters patient loyalty, respect and long-term engagement.
I am a strong advocate for his practice and a patient for life.

I was lucky enough to find Dr Beatty via a referral and I would refer him to anyone interested in Lasik / PRK eye surgery. The entire experience, which can be scary, was really pleasant with his and his staffs professional advise and care before, during and after the surgery. I am very thankful to be able to look at the world and go about my day to day activities without the hassle of glasses or contact lenses.

Who it may concern
About nine months ago Dr Beatty removed cataracts from both my eyes.
The procedures were successful and I do recommend this particular specialist. He is always professional and it was a relaxed experience.
The admin personnel are always friendly and professional.
Thanks.
