About the role

At Carolina Vision Associates, you'll have the opportunity to build a rewarding career with a well-established, privately owned practice that has been serving patients across Spartanburg, Gaffney, Inman, and Woodruff since 1979. If you're passionate about delivering exceptional eye care, making a meaningful difference in patients’ lives, and working in a modern, well-supported environment with advanced technology, flexible scheduling, and a strong team behind you, this is a fantastic opportunity to grow and thrive in the Upstate South Carolina community.

Why join us?

Established in 1979, Carolina Vision Associates has four locations and a team of seven ODs serving Spartanburg, Gaffney, and the greater Upstate region. The practice is dedicated to delivering exceptional vision care through comprehensive eye exams, specialty contact lenses, and medical eye care, helping patients protect their eye health and maintain their quality of life. With a strong, established patient base and consistent year-over-year as well as month-over-month growth, the practice offers a stable and thriving environment for long-term success. Optometrists benefit from full clinical support from experienced technicians, no weekend scheduling, and a two-hour break between morning and afternoon patients, creating a balanced and well-supported practice experience.

In this role, you'll make a meaningful impact every day by delivering comprehensive eye exams, diagnosing and treating eye disease, and helping patients achieve their best possible vision. You'll work with advanced technology, including RetEval ERG, Optos, and OCT, to provide high-quality, efficient care in a modern clinical setting. This opportunity offers flexible scheduling with part-time to full-time hours ranging from 24 to 40 hours per week, and providers typically see 23 to 36 patients based on the schedule flow they create for themselves, giving you the ability to shape a schedule that works for you while thriving in a fast-paced, well-supported environment.

Who you are:

You're a passionate, patient-focused professional who takes pride in delivering exceptional care, building lasting patient relationships, and making a meaningful difference with every visit. You thrive in a collaborative, team-oriented setting and feel confident caring for a wide range of patient needs with compassion, professionalism, and clinical excellence. With strong communication skills, a commitment to continuous learning, and a genuine desire to help patients see clearly and live fully, you'll play an important role in supporting both the continued success of the practice and the positive experience of every patient you serve.
