Familiarity with electronic health records (EHR) systems, autorefractors, lensometers, and other diagnostic tools is typically required. Strong interpersonal skills, attention to detail, and the ability to multitask help you excel in patient interactions and support the optometrist efficiently. These competencies ensure accurate patient assessments, smooth clinic operations, and high-quality patient care.
