Driver’s License Screening

The law stipulates that everyone renewing their driver’s licence must have their vision screened. Instead of waiting in long queues at the licensing authority, you can have this done by De Smedt Optometrists.

This project is conducted in co-operation with, and is approved by the Licencing Departments and the National Department of Transport. The screening does not replace a full eye examination, but will reveal any potential problems you may have before you renew your driver’s licence.

Upon completion, you will receive a certificate stipulating that you have had your eyes screened by an optometrist. This certificate will indicate the condition of your vision and will need to be presented when you are applying for a new licence at your local licensing department.
