Maria Kosturanova

Owner and Master Optometrist

Dioptra is a success story that I started in 1993, during a time of war, embargo and uncertainty. Although I had plans to go abroad, I decided to stay and create something of my own. With a lot of love, dedication and vision, I managed to build Dioptra into a leading brand in the optical industry, not only in Macedonia, but also in the region.


Since the first salon, each new location has brought a new story and challenge. We have invested in state-of-the-art equipment, top-notch staff and followed global trends. Today, with five salons, including Dioptra Couture Marriott - one of the most beautiful opticians in the world, I can proudly say that we have set new standards in the market.


At Dioptra, we have always strived to offer the highest quality and an individualized approach. We are the only ones in Macedonia where we use the most modern technology for analyzing visual behavior and measuring eye disparity. With this technology, we can precisely determine how your eyes work together, how you move them when looking, and at what distance you most often read. All this allows us to create personalized optical lenses that provide the largest field of vision and maximum wearing comfort.


My goal has always been to bring innovation – from the first personalized glasses and individual optical lenses to the cutting-edge diagnostic equipment. I believe that success comes with constant learning, professionalism and a strong team. The determination to be first, regardless of the circumstances, has made us recognizable for quality, innovation and top service.
