We are looking for a dedicated and meticulous ophthalmology assistant to work in a dynamic and patient-focused environment. As an ophthalmology assistant, you will play a key role in supporting ophthalmologists and optometrists during examinations, treatments, and patient care. Your main tasks will include assisting with eye examinations, performing preliminary tests such as visual acuity, visual field, and pressure measurements, as well as handling and maintaining medical equipment. You will also be responsible for welcoming patients, documenting medical information, and ensuring that patients feel safe and well cared for throughout their visit.
