Who We Are

Opternative is a technology company that helps people see better. We started Opternative to provide a safe, online option for getting prescriptions between eye exams. It's a win-win for the patients we serve: eyes stay healthy; people see clearly.

Our technology connects doctors and patients in new ways and we're looking for more than just skilled and talented individuals. We are looking for outliers and non-traditional thinkers because the Opternative Online Vision Test is anything but traditional.

Our success is built upon Trust, Resilience, Empathy, Communication, and Common Goals. We put "health before wealth" and always strive to work in a manner that would "make mom proud".
