Eye Train Techs & Consulting provides specialized ophthalmic technician training and practice consulting services designed to elevate the clinical performance of eye care organizations throughout the United States. Whether your practice is onboarding new ophthalmic assistants, preparing staff for JCAHPO certification, or restructuring clinical workflows to improve patient throughput, Eye Train Techs delivers measurable, lasting results.
Ophthalmic technician training prepares clinical staff to assist ophthalmologists and optometrists by performing a broad range of diagnostic and patient care tasks. These include visual acuity testing, tonometry, pupil dilation, fundus photography, optical coherence tomography (OCT), lensometry, refractometry, and pre-operative screening. Properly trained ophthalmic personnel are essential to a high-volume, high-quality eye care practice.
The Joint Commission on Allied Health Personnel in Ophthalmology (JCAHPO) offers a tiered certification pathway — from Certified Ophthalmic Assistant (COA) through Certified Ophthalmic Technician (COT) and Certified Ophthalmic Medical Technologist (COMT). Eye Train Techs prepares candidates at each level with structured curriculum, mock examinations, and hands-on skill evaluations that mirror the actual credentialing assessments.
Beyond individual training, Eye Train Techs & Consulting offers comprehensive practice assessments to identify inefficiencies in patient flow, technician utilization, and clinical documentation. Our consulting engagements are grounded in direct, in-practice observation followed by actionable recommendations — covering scheduling models, staff deployment strategies, EHR workflow improvements, and quality metrics tracking.
Founder Latrice Jones-Bey, MBA, COMT, OSC, draws on more than 25 years of clinical and administrative leadership in ophthalmology to craft consulting strategies that are practical, compliant, and immediately implementable. Her dual expertise as both a certified ophthalmic medical technologist and a credentialed ophthalmic surgical counselor makes Eye Train Techs uniquely qualified to bridge clinical excellence with operational efficiency.
Our clients include private ophthalmology practices, hospital-based eye departments, multi-site vision care groups, and private equity–backed ophthalmic organizations. Each engagement is customized to the size, specialty mix, and growth objectives of the practice. We work with front-desk staff, ophthalmic technicians, surgical coordinators, and clinic managers to create a cohesive, high-performing care team.
