Our story · Mauritius, since 1986

Four decades of careful sight.

Patel Optics began with a single branch and a simple promise — service and quality, without compromise. Forty years on, that promise still walks through our doors every day.

The beginning

One woman's eye for quality.

In 1986, Mrs. Nusrat Patel opened the first Patel Optics on the main road in Beau-Bassin — and quickly became a fixture for the neighbourhood she served. She is, to this day, the CEO of the family business.

From the outset she built the practice on two pillars: the quality of the product, and the care behind it. Our opticians and optometrists have kept to both ever since.

Naumaan and Ijaz Patel, the next generation at Patel Optics
The next chapter

A new generation, the same eye.

Over the last decade, the founder's sons — Naumaan and Ijaz Patel — joined the team as healthcare professionals in their own right, with Ijaz now directing the company under his mother's stewardship.

With an avant-garde spirit, the new generation opened in Rose Hill, then Triolet in the north — and kept going, until Patel Optics reached 8 branches across the island. Same family. Same eye for quality. A wider reach.
