About the Role

We are seeking a qualified Optometrist to join our team at SpaMedica, the UK's largest provider of NHS cataract surgery. As a Hospital Optometrist, you will play a vital role in supporting our cataract service, working across a range of clinics, including Pre-op, Post-op, and YAG laser treatments.
