Job Summary
Maxivision Eye Care is an independent, doctor-owned optometry practice in Naperville led by Dr. Maria Anum. We're known as the area's experts in myopia control and run a curated optical featuring Ray-Bans, Maui Jim, Michael Kors, Tory Burch, Emporio Armani, and more. We're a growing practice with a loyal patient base, and we're looking for an optician who loves the retail side of eye care as much as the clinical side.
The Role
This is first and foremost a sales role. Every patient who finishes an exam walks past our frame boards, and your job is to turn that moment into a great pair of glasses they love. You'll style patients, build trust fast, explain lens options in plain language, and close the sale.
Responsibilities
- Own the optical sales floor: greet every patient after their exam, style them in frames that fit their face, prescription, and budget, and guide them confidently to a purchase.
- Present premium lens options (anti-reflective, photochromic, progressives, sports and sun) and recommend second pairs where they genuinely make sense.
- Help parents of our many pediatric and myopia-management patients choose durable, well-fitting kids' eyewear.
- Take accurate measurements (PD, seg heights, vertex distance) and make sure every pair is dispensed, adjusted, and fitting perfectly.
- Maximize patients' vision insurance benefits (Eyemed, VSP, Spectera) and clearly explain out-of-pocket costs.
- Maintain accurate records in our EHR (Revolution) and handle patient information in line with HIPAA.
Experience
- Proven experience selling eyewear (retail optical or private practice). You should be comfortable being measured on capture rate and per-patient sales.
- A natural stylist and closer: warm, consultative, and persuasive without being pushy.
- Working knowledge of ophthalmic lenses, frames, and fitting/adjustment tools.
- Comfort explaining prescriptions, lens options, and insurance benefits in everyday language.
- Experience with Revolution EHR.
- ABO certification a plus, not required. Bilingual a plus, as we serve a diverse community.
- Great with kids and parents. A big part of our practice is pediatric.
Why Maxivision
- You get paid for what you sell. On top of your base pay, you earn commission on eyewear sales with no cap. Strong sellers here take home meaningfully more than a flat hourly wage.
- Performance bonuses. Hit capture rate and sales goals and you are rewarded for it. When the optical wins, you win.
- Growing independent practice where there is room to grow with us.
Pay: $23.00 - $27.00 per hour
