Job Description
Ophthalmology Surgical Technician – Ambulatory Surgery Center, Peoria, IL
Find your next opportunity where your expertise is respected, your schedule is predictable, and your growth is supported.
We are actively recruiting on behalf of a trusted and high-performing ambulatory surgery center in Peoria, Illinois, for an Ophthalmology Surgical Technician. This position is designed for experienced surgical techs who want to work in a collaborative environment that values professionalism, quality patient care, and team development.
This is ideal for someone looking for a long-term professional home without the pressure of nights, weekends, or major holidays.
Why This Role Stands Out
You’ll join a supportive, skilled surgical team working in a center that emphasizes precision, respect, and a commitment to excellence. The facility runs Monday through Friday from 6:30 AM to 3:00 PM, allowing you to reclaim your time outside of work and focus on what matters to you.
If you’re looking for a position that blends stability, purpose, and a culture of learning, this could be the right fit.

If you’re looking for a position that blends stability, purpose, and a culture of learning, this could be the right fit.
What You Can Expect
- Consistent daytime hours, Monday through Friday
Your schedule will be 6:30 AM to 3:00 PM with no nights, weekends, or major holidays required. This structure promotes work-life balance in a way most surgical roles cannot. - Strong pay and long-term opportunity
Compensation is $29 per hour, or $60,320 annually. - Multi-specialty experience
While your primary focus will be ophthalmology, you'll have the opportunity to cross-train into other surgical specialties. This expands your skill set and keeps your workday varied and professionally enriching. - Positive, high-standard work culture
This surgery center operates at a high level of clinical and operational excellence, supported by a leadership team that values your expertise and dedication.
What You Will Be Doing
- Prepare for scheduled surgical procedures, including organizing sterile instrument tables and setting up the OR according to case type
- Assist ophthalmology and other specialty surgeons during procedures by passing instruments, holding retractors, and managing surgical supplies
- Clean and maintain the operating room post-procedure and properly handle instrument sterilization and storage
- Cross-train into multiple surgery services to support the wider surgical team when needed
- Provide appropriate care for patients ranging in age from six months through adulthood
- Communicate effectively with the clinical director, nurses, anesthesia providers, and physicians to ensure seamless, safe surgical care
What We Are Looking For
- At least two years of hands-on experience as a Surgical Technician in a hospital or ambulatory setting
- Strong familiarity with ophthalmology procedures and comfort assisting in a range of surgical settings
- Competence in sterile technique, surgical support, and instrument processing
- A professional, team-oriented mindset with a commitment to safety and excellence in patient care
- Certification is not required for this position, but solid clinical experience is essential
If you're ready to take the next step in your surgical tech career—one where your time is respected, your skills are sharpened, and your team has your back—we’d love to connect with you.
