Plymouth is a city built around families, lakes, and four different school districts, which means the people who come to see us range from kindergartners getting a first eye checkup to grandparents keeping an eye on glaucoma. If you want an optometrist in Plymouth who can look after the whole family in one place, Art of Optiks is about fifteen minutes south at our 50th & France office, an easy run down Highway 169 to I-394. We have been providing thorough eye care for all ages since 2001, and we are happily taking new patients.

Eye Care Services for Plymouth Families
From a child’s first visit to managing an adult eye condition, Plymouth patients have one place to turn:
Comprehensive Eye Examinations
For vision and eye health.
Pediatric Eye Care
For infants, children, and teens.
Vision Therapy
For eye teaming, tracking, and focus.
Contact Lens Fittings
Including toric, multifocal, scleral, hybrid, RGP, and Ortho-K.
Corneal Refractive Therapy
For non-surgical vision correction during sleep.
LASIK Consultations
To review whether you are a good candidate.
Pre and Post-Surgical Eye Care
Before and after surgery.
Ocular Disease Management
For glaucoma, dry eye, and macular degeneration.
Urgent Care Services
For eye injuries, infections, and sudden vision changes.
With so many Plymouth households raising kids in the Wayzata, Osseo, Robbinsdale, or Hopkins districts, two services come up often: pediatric eye care for school-age vision, and vision therapy for a sharp kid who is still struggling to read or focus. If an eye injury or sudden vision change happens, call, and we will try to see you the same day.
What to Expect From an Optometrist in Plymouth
Whether the patient is five or seventy-five, the visit starts the same way: a look at your history and your vision, then a measurement of your prescription.
From there, your optometrist examines the health of the eye with retinal imaging and an optic nerve assessment, which is how we catch glaucoma, cataracts, and diabetic eye disease, often well before you would notice anything is wrong.
Because the back of the eye gives a direct view of your blood vessels, a routine eye checkup can even flag early signs of diabetes or high blood pressure. You leave knowing what we found and what to do about it. Most adults are due every one to two years, while kids, contact lens wearers, and anyone with diabetes do better with a yearly visit.
Why Choose Art of Optiks
Art of Optiks is an independent, doctor-owned eye clinic, founded in 2001 by Timothy Haupert, OD, and Stephanie Haenes, ABOC. For a family, the appeal is simple: our optometrists, Dr. Timothy Haupert and Dr. Victoria Whitman, set their own pace, so a kid’s nervous first exam and a parent’s complicated prescription both get the time they need from the same eye doctor.
- Board-certified optometrists who manage real eye conditions, not just hand out prescriptions
- Retinal imaging in routine exams, so we can track a child’s developing eyes and an adult’s eye health year to year
- An in-house lab with on-site technicians for precise lenses and faster turnaround, which matters when a kid breaks their glasses
- A curated eyewear collection, including frames sized and styled for younger faces
- A 4.9-star rating across more than 200 Google reviews
We are in network with VSP, EyeMed, Blue Cross Blue Shield, Medica, HealthPartners, and UnitedHealthcare, and open access for most plans, including Davis and Spectera. Call, and we will check your benefits before you come in.

Frequently Asked Questions
When should my child have their first eye exam?
A first full exam is generally recommended around age three, then yearly. We see children of all ages, including little ones who are not yet reading, and we keep the visit relaxed and kid-friendly.
Is a school vision screening the same as an eye exam?
No. A school screening is a quick check that can miss focusing, teaming, and eye health issues. A comprehensive eye exam looks at the whole picture, which is why many kids who pass a screening still benefit from a real exam.
Do you offer myopia control for kids whose prescription keeps climbing?
Yes. Options like Ortho-K, lenses worn overnight, and other approaches can help slow how fast a child’s nearsightedness progresses. We will talk through what fits your child during a fitting.
How far is your office from Plymouth?
About fifteen minutes by way of Highway 169 and I-394, or County Road 6 to France Avenue. Families on the far west side sometimes find our Wayzata location closer.
Do you accept vision insurance?
Yes. We are in network with VSP, EyeMed, Blue Cross Blue Shield, Medica, HealthPartners, and UnitedHealthcare, and open access for most plans, including Davis and Spectera. Call (612) 440-2020 to confirm your benefits.
