About the Role

We are seeking a dedicated and skilled Optometrist with at least 3 years of clinical experience to join our team. The ideal candidate will have a robust foundation in refraction techniques, a patient-centric approach to contact lens fitting and sales, and the ability to offer high-quality vision care services.

In this role, you will be responsible for assessing patients’ vision, detecting ocular conditions, and providing solutions to improve or correct vision. You will play a key part not only in diagnosing vision impairments but also in educating patients about their eye health and guiding them through the lens and frame selection process.

Key Responsibilities

- Perform comprehensive eye exams and refraction tests to determine the correct prescription for glasses or contact lenses.
- Diagnose visual or eye health issues and recommend appropriate treatment or referral to ophthalmologists as needed.
- Prescribe and fit corrective lenses, including single vision, bifocal, progressive, and specialty contact lenses.
- Provide hands-on support to patients learning how to insert, remove, and care for contact lenses properly.
- Conduct follow-ups for contact lens trials and make adjustments for optimal comfort and vision.
- Assist customers in selecting frames and lenses based on prescription, style, and comfort — including recommendations for high-index lenses, coatings,



and enhancements.
- Take precise measurements for eyeglass fitting including pupillary distance and lens fitting heights.
- Inspect and verify the accuracy of completed lenses to match the prescription and quality standards.
- Educate patients on proper eye care practices and explain test results in a clear and reassuring manner.
- Collaborate with in-store sales and optical teams to enhance customer satisfaction and drive contact lens and eyewear sales.
- Maintain accurate patient records and ensure compliance with health and safety protocols.

Required Skills and Qualifications

- Bachelor’s or Master’s degree in Optometry from a recognized institution.
- Minimum 3 years of experience practicing as an optometrist in a clinical or retail environment.
- Proficient in refraction testing, lens fitting, and vision assessment techniques.
- Solid understanding of ocular diseases, anatomy, and pharmacology.
- Strong interpersonal and communication skills, with the ability to build rapport with patients.
- Detail-oriented with excellent diagnostic and problem-solving abilities.
- Familiarity with electronic medical records (EMR) and optometry equipment.
- Commercial awareness and ability to contribute to contact lens and eyewear sales goals.

Preferred Skills

- Experience working in a high-volume retail optical or multispecialty clinic.
- Certification in advanced contact lens fitting or low vision care.
- Ability to explain technical concepts to patients clearly and compassionately.
