Ophthalmic Technician / Scribe (Retina Specialist)
Mount Pleasant, South Carolina
Full-Time | No Weekends | Physician-Led Retina Practice
We are actively hiring an experienced Ophthalmic Technician / Scribe to join our growing retina practice.
This is not an entry-level technician role. We are looking for an experienced ophthalmic professional whose primary responsibility will be real-time physician scribing and clinical documentation during patient visits, procedures, and treatment discussions.
Approximately 70% of this role is physician-side scribing, requiring speed, precision, clinical awareness, and the ability to keep pace with the physician while maintaining exceptional documentation accuracy.
The remaining portion of the role includes direct patient care support, including workups, diagnostic imaging, and procedural assistance when clinic flow demands it.
If you thrive in a fast-paced ophthalmology environment, understand retina terminology, and can document accurately while keeping pace with the physician, we’d love to meet you.
$20 to $25 per hour (based on experience) Team members may earn up to an additional $7 per hour through certifications, continuing education, and demonstrated performance.
We believe in rewarding team members who invest in themselves, continue growing professionally, and contribute positively to our culture.
This role is best suited for an experienced ophthalmic professional who enjoys being at the physician’s side, documenting complex patient encounters with speed, accuracy, and clinical confidence.
If you love ophthalmology, thrive under pressure, and take pride in being one step ahead, we’d love to talk.
This position requires candidates to be legally authorized to work in the United States without employer sponsorship
Candidates must have a minimum of 2 years of ophthalmology experience and proven ophthalmic scribing skills. Proficiency in ophthalmic terminology and a typing speed of at least 50 WPM are required.
