Vision Specialists

Why our team chose Vision Specialists

We're not a typical eye doctor's office — and we don't want typical technicians. We built Vision Specialists

around one idea: eye care should be simple, modern, and something patients actually look forward to. No

puffs of air. No dilation drops when we can avoid them. Monitor-guided exams that let patients see their

own retinal images on a big screen while the doctor explains what's happening.

That approach only works when the tech in the pre-exam room is sharp, calm, and genuinely great with

people. That's the role we're hiring for at our Council Bluffs office.

What you'll do

You'll run the pre-exam workup that sets the doctor up for a fast, thorough visit — and you'll be the first

person a patient meets after they check in.

• Perform Optos ultra-widefield retinal imaging

• Run OCT scans for retinal, optic nerve, and macular imaging

• Perform visual field testing (Humphrey) for glaucoma and neuro screening

• Take iCare tonometry readings — no more air-puff test

• Complete auto-refraction, lensometry, and pretesting

• Take patient history, medication reconciliation, and chief complaint

• Chart in RevolutionEHR and prep the room for the doctor

• Assist with contact lens insertion/removal training as needed

• Keep exam lanes stocked, clean, and running on time

• Ensure smooth patient-to-OD exchange with a focus on efficiency and accuracy

What we're looking for

• 1–4 years of hands-on experience as an optometric or ophthalmic technician (ophthalmology,

optometry, or LASIK/refractive practice all count)

• Comfortable operating diagnostic equipment — Optos, OCT, visual field, and tonometer experience is a

big plus

• Strong RevolutionEHR, Crystal PM, or comparable EHR charting skills

• Confident with patients: kids, retirees, first-time contact lens wearers — you meet each person where

they are

• Reliable, punctual, and steady under a full schedule

• High school diploma or equivalent

Compensation & Benefits

• $20/hour — competitive with the Omaha metro market for the role

• PTO + separately awarded sick leave + paid holidays

• 401(k) retirement plan

• No weekends. No evenings. Real work-life balance in a healthcare setting

• Work alongside a supportive team of optometrists, opticians, and vision consultants

Our Council Bluffs office

Our Council Bluffs location sits on West Broadway — an easy commute from Council Bluffs, Chautauqua,

Crescent, Mineola, Weston, Silver City, Glenwood, Pacific Junction, and Malvern. It's a modern,

thoughtfully designed space with a team that takes patient experience seriously without taking themselves too seriously.

You'll be working directly with doctors who invest in their techs and expect real ownership of the pre-exam

workflow.
