Optometrist - Full time open to Part Time - Virginia Beach, VA
About the Position
We’re seeking an Optometrist to join a well-established, medically focused practice with over 35 years of clinical history. The optical side of the business was sold to private equity 5 years ago, so you’ll have no sales responsibilities—just a strong focus on patient care.
This position is ideal for someone who enjoys practicing full-scope medical optometry. Approximately 75% of visits are medical, with glaucoma management making up 60% of those cases. You’ll perform comprehensive eye exams, manage ocular disease, and provide contact lens fittings and care. While you’ll make professional recommendations for contact lenses, you will not be involved in retail sales—the optical team handles all eyeglasses.
This is a great opportunity to work independently, provide high-level clinical care, and benefit from a patient base that values medical expertise and continuity of care.
What You’ll Do:
- Provide comprehensive general optometric care, including routine vision exams
- Diagnose and manage medical eye conditions as a medical optometrist
- Perform thorough eye exams, including refractions and ocular health assessments
- Educate patients on eye health, preventive care, and treatment options
Access to Advanced Technology and Equipment, Including:
- Optical Coherence Tomography (OCT) for detailed retinal imaging
- Autorefractor for efficient and accurate preliminary refractions
- Visual field testing systems
- Otto’s Daytona Fundus Photography Unit for ultra-widefield retinal imaging
- Tonometer for intraocular pressure measurement
- Binocular Scope for detailed stereoscopic examination
You’ll Work Closely With:
- Ophthalmic Technician
- Office Manager
- Receptionist
What You’ll Need:
- Fresh graduates are welcome
- Doctor of Optometry (OD) degree
- Active state optometry license
- TPA license required to be able to prescribe
- Familiarity with optical products and services
Key Qualities We’re Looking For:
- Personable – Able to build strong, trusting relationships with patients and staff
- Technically skilled – Confident in using modern diagnostic tools and clinical equipment
- Clinically current – Maintains up-to-date knowledge of best practices and advances in optometric care
