The Local Eye Site (LES) Model
LES is an online community of eye care professionals that has a strong
recruiting component. LES is not a job board, and we are not
recruiters. We offer annual memberships that allow eye care practices
and organizations to access the LES community for recruiting
purposes. The LES membership model encourages pro-active, year-
round recruiting.
As part of the community, you will compete for the limited resource
of experienced, eye care professionals.

Testimonials
“For a minimal annual fee, I have access to the people and issues that matter most to our facility. It has
been a valuable investment for everyone involved. We have already filled six positions in less than
eight months using Local Eye Site.”
Genie A. (LaFranchise) Greene, Financial Analyst/Certified Ophthalmic Technician

“TLC Vision is focused more on building lasting awareness and long-term relationships with top-talent
prospects in the vision industry than we are on “quick-hit-hiring.” We believe one of the best ways
for us to do that is through strategic partnerships with organizations that have proven their
dedication to the advancement of our industry…Local Eye Site is clearly one of those
organizations.”
Charles Judy, Vice President of Human Resources
