Position Summary:
Step into a fast‑paced, high‑impact role where your expertise can truly protect patients’ sight. The Ophthalmic (Retina) Nurse is an essential member of our retina care team, supporting patients with serious, vision‑threatening conditions such as macular degeneration, diabetic retinopathy, and retinal vascular disorders. These high‑acuity patients depend on timely diagnostics, urgent interventions, and close follow‑up—and you’ll be at the center of it all.
What you will do:
