About Job

Description:

 

About the Role:


Are you someone who loves helping people see the world more clearly—literally? We’re looking for a bright, energetic, and detail-loving Ophthalmic Assistant to join our eye care dream team! Whether you're measuring vision, calming nerves, or helping during eye exams, you're a key part of every patient's journey to better sight.


Think of yourself as part technician, part educator, and full-on superhero in scrubs.

Requirements:

 

 

What You’ll Be Doing (a.k.a. Your Superpowers):

  • Greet patients with a warm smile and collect their stories (a.k.a. medical histories). 
  • Check vision, pressure, pupils, and more—like a vision detective. 
  • Assist during eye exams and minor procedures (don’t worry, we’ll train you!). 
  • Prep exam rooms with precision and keep things sparkling clean. 
  • Teach patients how to use eye drops like pros and walk them through post-care steps. 
  • Keep our high-tech gadgets running smoothly (you’ll be BFFs with our diagnostic equipment). 
  • Master the EMR (that’s our digital command center) for scheduling, charting, and notes. 
  • Work alongside a fun, professional team that really gets each other.
     

 What You Bring to the Table:

  • A high school diploma or GED (bonus points for medical or eye care experience!) 
  • A passion for helping people and an eye for detail (pun intended ) 
  • Certification as a COA is awesome, but not required—willingness to learn is key! 
  • Excellent communication and multitasking super skills 
  • Comfort with tech and an eagerness to learn
     

Perks & Benefits:

  • Flexible hours & friendly coworkers 
  • Eye care discounts (of course!) 
  • Opportunities for growth and certification support 
  • Coffee, laughs, and the occasional office donut
