- Take accurate optical measurements (PD, segment height) and adjust/repair eyewear.
- Process vision insurance claims (VSP and EyeMed) and explain benefits to patients.
- Order lenses and frames, verify incoming orders via lensometry, and manage inventory.
- Provide backup support for the front desk, including scheduling and patient check-in.
Required Qualifications
- Optometry/Optical Setting Experience: Minimum of 1–2 years (Required).
- Hands-on experience operating ophthalmic pretesting equipment.
- Strong knowledge of optical lens types, materials, and coatings.
- Familiarity with vision insurance verification and billing practices (VSP and EyeMed).
- Excellent customer service, communication, and multitasking skills.
- Must maintain a professional appearance and demeanor appropriate for a patient-facing clinical and retail optical environment.
- High school diploma or equivalent.
