Are jobs in this industry on the rise? Are there any sub-sectors that are growing?

Where are the jobs? Which places have the most optician opportunities?

The jobs are pretty much everywhere. In this economy which stands in a state of economic recovery, optical positions from opticians and ophthalmology techs are still growing due to the fact that there are still ocular and visual problems. Doctors are opening their private practices and new and developing technology that further enhances vision are coming about each and every year. This makes the opportunity vast.

There is also information on this topic on a fairly new site called www.opticianworld.com.

You have a choice to work at eyeglass stores or optometrist or ophthalmologists offices. NYC has many opportunities for experienced people..actually anywhere you go in the world has opportunities if you seek them out. Try the Yellow Pages in your city first then try the internet job search sites....good luck !
