Sayre, Pennsylvania, United States Guthrie Health Full time
Position Overview:

The Ophthalmic Technician plays a crucial role in delivering advanced ophthalmic assessments, procedures, and diagnostic tests to support healthcare providers and enhance patient care.

This position involves assisting the provider during patient examinations, office-based laser treatments, and surgical procedures, acting as the primary assistant in the operating room. A solid understanding of the daily operations within an ophthalmology outpatient setting is essential.

The ideal candidate will exhibit qualities of self-motivation, adaptability, punctuality, attention to detail, effective time management, and exceptional communication skills.

  • Act as a scribe for the provider, capturing and summarizing essential examination data, clinical findings, and treatment plans.
  • Educate patients, assist with informed consent processes, and prepare surgical documentation.
  • Support the provider during laser and surgical procedures, adhering to aseptic and sterile techniques.
  • Serve as the first assistant in the operating room.
  • Oversee the cleaning and sterilization of office instruments, maintain quality control, and manage inventory of ophthalmic equipment according to established protocols.
  • Document and track surgical co-management, process necessary forms, and monitor the provider's schedule for efficiency and accuracy.
Additional Responsibilities:
