Overview

Mountain Valley Eye Care has partnered with iHire to reach top talent for their opening below. Join Mountain Valley Eye Care as a Full-Time Associate Optometrist. Mountain Valley Eye Care, located in the San Luis Valley, is surrounded by some of Colorado's most beautiful scenery. The valley attracts outdoor lovers from all around the world. Ten of Colorado's 58 14'ers lie within the San Luis Valley alone.

From world class trophy fishing, big and small game hunting, three ski resorts less than two hours away, the Great Sand Dunes National Park and endless streams and trails for hiking, running or biking, we are a mecca for outdoor enthusiasts. Small town living and wide-open spaces are a bonus for families who need lots of room to play.

We practice to the full extent of our license and cater to all ages and needs. The practice has a full range of equipment including an in-house finishing lab with blocker/edger, OCT, VF, Topographer, automated lensometers, AR, Eidon UWA retinal camera, Sonoquence and YAG laser.

Our office provides services including complete eye exams (adults and children), CL fitting including scleral lenses, ocular disease management, minor lumps/bumps removal and Yag PC/PI. While our practice has a high geriatric population, we see patients of all ages daily.

Our practice also houses the largest optical in the valley and attracts a large patient base for purchasing eye wear.
