Overview:
Colorado Eye Center is seeking an experienced Optician for our Boulder, CO office. We offer excellent hours, no late evenings or major holidays, a lucrative spiff program, comprehensive benefits, and a supportive, team-oriented environment.
The ideal candidate is American Board of Opticianry certified with 1-2 years of retail optician experience.
This is your opportunity to join one of the areas most recognized leaders in ophthalmology and optometry. The Colorado Eye Center (CEC) story begins with Dr. Jack May in 1963.

Both doctors specialized not only in general optometry but also (and most importantly) inpatient care. From the office they shared, they made sure to operate with a “patient, first” mentality being at the forefront of their efforts. This was the case in 1963. And that legacy of care continues today.

Our employees contribute directly to the growth and success of our practices, and take pride in being a member of our team.
