      Optical Manager

      As the Optical Manager at Haik Humble Eye Center, I strive for excellence in all that my staff and I do. Education is highly valued in our practice which is evidenced by all of our opticians being ABO certified soon after hire. I personally educate my staff and provide new learning opportunities for them and myself on a regular basis. I manage a staff of highly motivated salespeople. We educate each patient on the latest technological advances in the eye care industry. Our main concern is providing our patients with the best possible visual experience. I pride myself on improving patients' quality of life by improving their visual experience. Show less
