If you enjoy meeting new people every day and have an interest in eye care, you might make a good optometric technician. Technicians at our practice are and integral part of our healthcare team as they assist the optometrists to assess the state of a patient’s vision and perform other actions related to office operations and customer service.
When working with patients, you may help prepare patients before an examination by gathering medical history information, explaining the exam process and administering tests to determine the visual capabilities of a patient. You may also, under the direction of an optometrist, perform some therapy exercises or procedures with the patient. Record keeping duties, such as monitoring inventory within the clinic and keeping notes during an examination, may also be part of your job. Technicians conduct contact lens insertion and removal classes, along with various testing as requested by the Doctor.
We are seeking a positive, dependable, and outgoing person to join our busy team of optometric professionals. Experience is not required but is always a plus; we will work hard to train the right person. You must be comfortable working with computers and direct patient care for the position and present themselves in a friendly and professional manor.
