José Lopez
A.B.O.C.
Jose has over 19 years of experience as an Optician with experience in both lens dispensing and lens manufacturing. Certified by The American Board of Opticianry since 2012 and a Medical Board of California Registered Spectacle Lens Dispenser since 2015. Jose has a fashion design background which infuses his passion for frame styling so he can help our patients find that perfect pair of eyewear you deserve! His many years of optical experience and extensive knowledge of lens options is informed by the work he has had manufacturing spectacles in the lab so the optics of a good pair of glasses are familiar to him.
Our small business is fortunate to have José as our Master Optician and Office Manager. José works tirelessly, throughout the day, on behalf of patient care: ALL aspects of patient communications and prescription orders: voice mail, texts, emails, fax, request for records, appointment scheduling, canceling, rescheduling, contact lens orders; all aspects of insurance authorizations, insurance billing AND triage for urgent eye care appointments.
As Master Optician for Moderne Eye, José curates and purchases the entire frame inventory. He measures patients for custom digital lenses; orders and verifies glasses prescriptions and then expertly dispenses the spectacular spectacles to patients.
