Job Description

Family Vision Care and Contact Lenses in Roseville, California is looking for an Associate Optometrist who is passionate about providing thoughtful, personalized care and building meaningful relationships with patients, teammates, and the local community. This opportunity is ideal for someone who values collaboration, communicates with empathy and professionalism, and is excited to grow with a well-established practice that puts patient experience first.

Why Join Us?

Established in 1990, Family Vision Care and Contact Lenses has built a strong reputation for providing comprehensive, patient-centered eye care for every stage of life.

The practice offers advanced services including dry eye treatment, myopia management, glaucoma, cataract and refractive management, specialty contact lenses, corneal care, and diabetic eye exams.

With nearly five decades of combined medical management experience and deep connections throughout the Roseville medical community, the team is committed to delivering thoughtful care in a welcoming, kid-friendly environment.

As the practice continues to grow over the next few years, this is a meaningful opportunity to join a dedicated team and help shape its continued success.

What You'll Do

As an Associate Optometrist, you’ll provide full-scope optometric care in accordance with California state guidelines while supporting a broad range of patient needs, with a full day typically seeing 16 to 18 patients per doctor.

You’ll use advanced diagnostic technology, including wide-field high-resolution photography, anterior and posterior OCT imaging, corneal topography, meibography and tear film analysis, tear assay testing, visual field technologies, video slit lamp imaging, and modern electronic refraction systems.

You’ll also maintain accurate records, complete self-audits, and participate in practice development and administrative responsibilities as assigned by senior team members.

The position is designed to start at 24–32 hours per week during the first 90 days, with the opportunity to transition into a full-time salaried role of 32–44 hours per week.

Who You Are

You’re a passionate, dedicated optometrist with a Doctor of Optometry degree in good standing, an active California license, and DEA and TPA certifications.

You bring a strong commitment to exceptional eye care and community vision health, along with the confidence to make complex medical decisions and proactively treat ocular disease.

Because the practice has a large myopia control presence and serves many pediatric patients, you should be comfortable working with children and supporting comprehensive, patient-centered care. Candidates must also have no criminal record or civil action suits related to the practice of optometry.
