Whether you're a new graduate or experienced practitioner, you'll have clinical scope, advanced technology, and professional independence to develop your practice further.

Optometrist - L&F Eyecare

Moe & Warragul, VIC

37.5 hours per week

What would your week look like if your focus was simply providing great clinical care?

At L&F Eyecare, Optometrists aren't expected to select frames, fit eyewear, or work towards sales KPIs. They're there to practise optometry.

Based primarily in Moe with additional days in Warragul, you'll join established independent practices where patients trust their Optometrist as an important part of their healthcare.

Whether you're a new graduate, early in your career or an experienced practitioner, you'll have the clinical scope, technology, and professional independence to keep developing and practise the way you want to.

This is full-scope optometry with genuine clinical variety:

• 30-40-minute initial consultations, with timing able to reflect your experience
• Broad exposure to therapeutic and ocular disease presentations
• Glaucoma and cataract co-management and day-one post-operative care
• Strong relationships with GPs and local ophthalmologists
• Conducting six-monthly foreign body removal sessions with local emergency department doctors
• Advanced technology including Optos Daytona, OCT with angiography, visual fields, axial length and topography
• Up to nine Optometrists across the group for mentorship and clinical collaboration
• Experienced dispensing team managing frame selection and fitting
• No sales KPIs
• Complete professional independence

Both.

New graduates and early career Optometrists will have experienced clinicians around them to discuss cases, provide mentorship, and help build confidence through genuine clinical exposure.

For experienced Optometrists, L&F offers autonomy without isolation. The independence to make your own clinical decisions with knowledgeable colleagues available when collaboration adds value.

You don't need to fit one career stage. What matters most is how you approach your patients and your practice. You'll be someone who:

• Is caring and empathetic, with a genuine patient-first approach
• Values thorough clinical care and takes the time to understand the person in front of you
• Is curious and keen to keep developing clinically
• Enjoys collaborating and discussing cases with other Optometrists and health professionals
• Is comfortable with professional independence and taking ownership of clinical decisions

Whether you're looking for the right place to start your career or the freedom to take your clinical practice further, L&F offers the scope to do both.

Bring your curiosity, your clinical judgement, and your care for patients. L&F will give you plenty to work with.

Bridge Eye Care in Murray Bridge, SA, is seeking an Optometrist for a dual clinical and optical role. This established independent practice offers full-scope optometry with access to imaging and optical dispensing in a recently upgraded space.

You will split your week roughly three days in practice and two days across dry eye management, diagnostics, and dispensing, with mentoring and scope to establish your own patient base.

Established in the late 1940s, Bridge Eye Care is an independent practice with a longstanding connection to Murray Bridge and the surrounding region. Located approximately one hour from Adelaide, it offers the variety of regional optometry while keeping the city within easy reach.

Following a move into a larger, newly fitted practice, the team now has additional consulting rooms and the capacity to welcome another Optometrist.

Rather than spending five days in the consulting room, this dual role combines full-scope optometry with broader involvement across the patient journey. Your week will include:

• Approximately three days practising full-scope optometry
• Two days across dry eye management, diagnostic testing, pretesting and optical dispensing

You'll work with a broad range of patients and clinical presentations, with access to OCT, Optos, topography, meibography, visual fields and slit lamp photography.

You'll also have:

• Time to develop meaningful patient relationships
• The opportunity to establish your own patient base
• Broader experience across clinical, diagnostic and optical care
• Mentoring tailored to your level of experience
• Support with continuing education and skill development

This opportunity could suit an experienced Optometrist looking for a more varied working week or a new graduate seeking broad exposure to how an independent practice delivers care.

You'll bring:

• A recognised Optometry qualification, or be approaching graduation
• A genuine commitment to patient care and service
• A willingness to contribute across consulting and optical care
• Initiative, flexibility and an interest in continuing to learn

The role is available from September, although Bridge Eye Care is prepared to wait for the right person, including a new graduate completing their studies.

If you want to practise optometry while understanding and influencing the complete patient outcome, this role offers scope well beyond the consulting room.
