Adj Mokokomadi Makgotloe

Mokokomadi Makgotloe is a South African ophthalmologist and academic affiliated with tertiary institutions in Johannesburg, including Charlotte Maxeke Johannesburg Academic Hospital and Chris Hani Baragwanath Academic Hospital. The scholarly work is closely linked to clinical practice in high-volume public sector settings, with a strong commitment to improving eye care delivery in resource-limited environments.

Research focuses on vitreoretinal surgery, diabetic tractional and rhegmatogenous retinal detachment, retinoblastoma management, and retinopathy of prematurity. Additional contributions address infectious and inflammatory eye disease, including microbial keratitis and syphilitic uveitis, as well as ultrasonographic optic nerve assessment. This body of work highlights expertise in complex posterior segment pathology and ocular oncology.

A consistent theme is evaluation of surgical outcomes, service efficiency, and the impact of public health challenges such as COVID-19 on ophthalmic care. The publications demonstrate strength in retrospective clinical analysis and health systems research, offering locally relevant evidence that informs surgical practice, antimicrobial policy, and screening strategies within the South African context.
