  • Educate patients on lens options, coatings, and pricing
  • Process and track optical lab orders
  • Perform adjustments, repairs, and fittings
  • Maintain frame inventory and merchandising
  • Verify vision insurance and handle payments
Ophthalmic Technician Responsibilities (Entry-Level)

• Gather patient history and prepare exam rooms
• Assist with diagnostic imaging (OCT, Optos)
• Support the clinical team with patient flow and exam readiness

What We’re Looking For
