Associate Optometrist – Changing lives through better sight

Location: West End, BC

The independent optometrist at Specsavers West End is looking for an associate optometrist to join their busy clinic.

Specsavers is the world’s largest, privately-owned optical retailer. Our journey began 40 years ago in the UK, with visionary optometrists Doug and Mary Perkins. Today, we support over 2,700 healthcare businesses, passionately caring for more than 44 million patients and customers worldwide.

We believe that access to quality eyecare should be a right, not a luxury. That’s why we’ve made OCT available as a standard part of eye exams. With our advanced clinical equipment and an extensive range of affordable and high-quality eyewear, we’re here to make a real difference in the lives of our customers.

Your opportunity and practice

Offering eye exams when patients need them means having the right team in each of our optometrist-owned and operated clinics. Join an independent Optometry Partner and team of passionate eyecare professionals in shaping community eye health.

Your Associate Optometrist Opportunity in West End Offers:

• Clinical Excellence: Benefit from a fully integrated clinic with the latest diagnostic technology such as NIDEK Tonoref 3, NIDEK automated lensometer, Topcon Maestro2, NIDEK RT-6100 refractometer, NIDEK slit lamp SL-1800, Marco M2 Ultra Slit Lamp, and Zeiss HFA3 with SITA Faster visual field. Viewing patient pre-test reports and history is easier than ever, enabling more informed consultations.
• Culture of Dedication: A team committed to community eyecare and monitoring eye health for preventable vision loss, with OCT as part of standard exams.
• Clinical Autonomy: Practice in a private, independent clinic supported by Specsavers resources to deliver the best care.
• Pre-test Support: Trained eyecare consultants assist with pre-testing, providing reports directly to your exam room.
• Professional Development: Access to qualified optometry support for ongoing professional development, both on-site and virtually.

In addition to advanced clinical technology and a culture of excellence, there are opportunities for ownership and career growth.
