About the role
Ophthalmology Registered Veterinary Technician
We're thrilled to announce a major expansion at Colorado Animal Specialty & Emergency (CASE) in Boulder, CO, marking a new chapter of growth and opportunity! To meet the evolving needs of our patients and community, we're adding a dedicated corridor for Internal Medicine, Dentistry, Dermatology, and Ophthalmology services. With this expansion, we’re adding over 10,000 square feet of cutting-edge space, creating an environment where excellence in patient care thrives. We’re excited to continue growing, elevating healthcare, and making a meaningful impact—together!
We’re looking for a detail-oriented, compassionate Ophthalmology Registered Veterinary Technician who isn’t afraid to keep an eye on the finer things—like patient comfort, precision care, and a well-lubricated schedule. If you’ve ever dreamed of specializing in veterinary ophthalmology (or just want to use phrases like “corneal ulcer” in everyday conversation), we’d love to meet you.
This is a unique chance to step into a specialty role within a brand-new department, supported by an experienced clinical team and a board-certified ophthalmologist. Whether you have previous experience in ophthalmology or are eager to learn, this is a role where your skills will shine—and so will your patients' retinas.
General Overview:
The ophthalmology technician will primarily be responsible for obtaining patient histories, completing ophthalmic tests and procedures, drawing and submitting laboratory samples and providing client education. On the days we are not seeing appointments we are completing a variety of ophthalmic surgeries.
