How to get a job as a health care worker-Optometrist

Hi Chibest123,

Welcome to Expat.Com, hope you are doing well 

Optometrists in Mauritius either practice in the public sector or the private sector. Some very well known professionals have their own stores/brands. The Opticians Registration Board (Registered Optometrist) provides licences to work in that field.

Being a regulated profession, you need to assess your qualifications first : http://www.tec.mu/recognition_equivalence

As for job hunting, the best way would be to contact the different specialised clinics and apply through the career section.

Recently, Optissimo was looking for an optometrist (you will see the ad on fb, search for Optissimo.mu)

Some other leads (many more on google search) :

As a foreigner, you will either need a work or occupation permit to work and live here. You will find all the relevant information in the Visas in Mauritius section of the Mauritius Guide.

Also, feel free to get in touch with the Mauritius medical council for official infos.

All the very best,
