Supervisor
My name is Amanda Kline, affectionately known as Mandy by family and friends. I was born and raised in Roane County, a native of Harriman. I attended Roane State Community college were I received an Associates of Applied Science degree in Opticianry. Shortly after obtaining my degree from Roane State, I was employed by The Eye Center of Oak Ridge. This past February I was promoted to supervisor of the Midtown location. It is bitter sweet to be leaving my work family for the past 16 years, but I am looking forward to coming back home to serve my community. I am dedicated to providing excellent customer service to the patient for all of their eyecare needs  from the initial encounter.
