If you are looking for an optometrist in Minnetonka, our 50th & France location is about ten to fifteen minutes east, and our Wayzata office is right there for the west side of the city. Same doctors, same care, whichever is the shorter drive. Art of Optiks has been part of Twin Cities eye care since 2001, and we are taking new patients.

Eye Care Services for Minnetonka Patients

Whichever office you pick, you get the full range of care:

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.

If you spend summers on the water or your weekends on the trails, ask about contact lens options that hold up to an active lifestyle, and about non-surgical corneal refractive therapy if you would rather not deal with glasses or contacts during the day.

What to Expect From an Optometrist in Minnetonka

Every visit, at either office, follows the same thorough path. Your optometrist reviews your history and your vision, measures your prescription, and then examines the health of the eye using retinal imaging and an optic nerve assessment. That is how we screen for glaucoma, cataracts, and diabetic eye disease, conditions that often appear before you feel anything. 

 

Because the eye is the one place a doctor can view your blood vessels directly, the exam can also reveal early signs of diabetes or high blood pressure. You leave with a clear picture of your eye health and what to do next. 

 

Most adults need an eye checkup every one to two years, and yearly if you wear contacts, have diabetes, or have a family history of eye disease.

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. Two offices are part of the appeal, but the bigger one is how the visit feels: our optometrists, Dr. Timothy Haupert and Dr. Victoria Whitman, take their time, and an eye doctor who knows you tends to catch things sooner.

 

  • Board-certified optometrists who diagnose and manage eye conditions, not just run a screening
  • Retinal imaging in routine exams to build a picture of your eye health over time
  • An in-house optical lab and on-site technicians for precise lens work and quicker turnaround
  • A curated selection of frames from independent designers and limited-run collections
  • 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 verify your coverage before you come in.

Free customer parking sits directly behind and underneath the building, with entry from France Ave and 49½ Street or from 50th Street. If you are on the west side near the lake, our Wayzata office is likely closer.

I have a very difficult prescription or so it seems as I have been to many eye drs over the last few years just trying to see well! I was thrilled with the eye exam and help finding a new pair of glasses! I will be calling the Art of Optiks my new complete eye care home. I am very relieved to have found a place I can trust for my eyecare.

This business is very professional and has a very nice selection of frames. But what is most critical to me is how thorough the eye exam was and how modern the machines seemed. We all know the importance of healthy eyes. I am very impressed with the doctor and she is in the process of putting my eyes through a series of appointments to evaluate them and get a crystal clear picture of what is up with them. She seems extremely competent and I feel comfortable recommending this business and I am relieved to have found them myself.

I have been a patient at Art of Optiks for the last two years and for the first time I actually look forward to my annual eye exam. Dr. Hollenbach is thorough, explains things and is always willing to answer any questions. Dr. Hollenbach and the rest of the staff are transparent regarding what my insurance will cover and what I can expect to pay, even advising me on how best to use my vision benefits. I recently bought glasses here and the staff provided great suggestions and overall a great experience.

In the last two weeks I have been to six optical stores looking for a fun pair of frames. With a narrow bridge I have to have nose pads. But with a thick prescription I need frames that hide that thickness. Finding something that looks good and will function properly is difficult. I walked into art optics and the 1st 1 pair of glasses she picked were the best I had tried on in two weeks. But then she changed her mind and grabbed a second pair. They were absolutely perfect. We tried a variety of others but she knew best. They came home with me and I am a very happy camper!!!

The optometry exam is thorough, convenient and efficient. While the frame selection is my favorite, the exam is my first here, but I’m very happy with the service.

I had something stuck in my eye that I couldn’t wash out. Dr Whitman was able to see me, who’s not even a patient there, right before they closed on a Saturday. The staff is super knowledgeable & friendly, providing an overall a great experience

I had a fantastic experience with Dr. Whitman last week for an acute eye issue! To my surprise, she got me in same day for an exam (even as a new patient to the clinic). I was so impressed with the customer service and the detailed exam, and felt a huge big sense of relief to get clear answers and solutions to my concern. Dr. Whitman even called the next day to follow up. Highly recommend, and I’ll definitely be going back!

Frequently Asked Questions

Which of your offices is closer to me in Minnetonka?

If you are near the lake or the west side, Wayzata is usually closer. If you are toward Ridgedale, I-394, or the east side, 50th & France is an easy ten to fifteen minutes. Both have the same doctors and services.

Can you fit contacts for an active or outdoor lifestyle?

Yes. We fit daily lenses that are easy for travel and sport, along with toric, multifocal, and specialty options, and we will match the lens to how you actually spend your time.

What is corneal refractive therapy?

Also called Ortho-K, it gently reshapes the eye with lenses worn overnight, so you can see clearly during the day without glasses or daytime contacts. It is one non-surgical option we review during a fitting.

How often should I get an eye exam?

Most adults every one to two years, and yearly for contact lens wearers, people with diabetes, or anyone with a family history of eye disease. Children should be seen yearly.

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.
