Ophthalmic Assistant

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.

• 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.

• 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

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