Optical Assistant


Also referred to as optometry assistants or technicians, these professionals help patients with their eyeglasses and contacts under the supervision of optometrists or ophthalmologists. During or after an appointment, assistants help fit eyeglasses by measuring patients' eyes and the bridges of their noses. They may also help individuals find the proper contact lenses for comfort and visibility. Any time eyeglasses need to be repaired, optical assistants make the necessary adjustments. Additional duties include appointment scheduling and gathering patient information. Some assistants may work during weekends and evenings.
