About the role

Build a Rewarding Eye Care Career as an Optometrist in Riverhead, New York

Opportunity Overview: Cohen's Fashion Optical is seeking a patient-focused optometrist to deliver exceptional vision care in an in-person practice in Riverhead, New York. This is an outstanding opportunity for a Doctor of Optometry who wants to combine meaningful clinical work with the energy of a modern optical environment. You will have the opportunity to make a direct impact on patients' daily lives through comprehensive eye exams, eye health education, contact lens care and diagnosis of ocular conditions while earning a competitive annual salary of $150,000 to $170,000.

What You'll Do: Perform comprehensive eye examinations that evaluate visual acuity, refraction, binocular vision, ocular health and patients' changing vision needs. Diagnose, manage and appropriately refer patients with ocular disease, cataracts, low-vision concerns and other conditions requiring attentive primary eye care. Use clinical testing, including visual field testing, keratometry, pretesting and optical coherence tomography, to support accurate diagnoses and treatment recommendations. Fit and manage contact lens patients, offering personalized guidance that promotes comfort, healthy wear and long-term satisfaction. Educate patients on preventive eye care, treatment plans, follow-up needs, LASIK considerations and vision correction options in clear, compassionate language. Collaborate with optical and clinical team members to create a smooth, welcoming patient experience from the exam through eyewear selection and patient recall.

What You'll Bring:

Hold a current Doctor of Optometry degree and an active New York optometry license, enabling you to provide high-quality patient care independently.
Bring strong expertise in comprehensive eye exams, refraction, eye care diagnosis and visual acuity assessment.
Are comfortable identifying and managing common ocular disease presentations while recognizing when an ophthalmology referral is appropriate.
Communicate with empathy and professionalism, helping patients feel informed, respected and confident in their care decisions.
Take a detail-oriented, patient-first approach and work effectively with a collaborative, in-person practice team.
Preferred Clinical Experience:
Experience with contact lenses, visual fields, optical coherence tomography, cataract evaluations, vision therapy, low vision or patient recall programs is valued.
Familiarity with pretesting workflows and an optical retail setting will help you contribute quickly to an efficient patient journey.

Compensation and Benefits: Enjoy a competitive annual salary of $150,000 to $170,000, reflecting the value of your clinical expertise and patient care leadership. Receive health insurance, vacation leave, sick leave, holiday pay and paid time off to support your well-being inside and outside of work.

Before you apply

Applying takes about a minute. These four things decide how fast it moves after that.

Your profile is current

It's what we read first. Occupations, seniority and locations matter more than a long history.

Two examples you can talk through

Not a portfolio — just two pieces of work where you can explain the decisions and what you'd change.

A number in mind

What you're on now and what would make you move. We negotiate better when we know both.

Your notice period

Employers plan around it, and it's the question that stalls offers most often.

Once you apply, someone reads it and calls you before anything reaches the employer — usually within two working days.
