Maple Grove has grown into one of the largest, most family-heavy suburbs in the state, with the Osseo district schools, North Memorial’s hospital, and more shopping than just about anywhere outside Bloomington, so you have eye doctors close to home. We are about twenty to twenty-five minutes south. People still make the trip, and if you are weighing an optometrist near Maple Grove against the drive, the rest of this page is meant to help you decide. Art of Optiks has been an independent practice since 2001, and for the northwest metro, our Wayzata office is often the closer of our two locations.

Eye Care Services for Maple Grove Patients
Whichever office you choose, families turn to us for 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

Urgent Care Services
For eye injuries, infections, and sudden vision changes.
The Maple Grove families who drive to us usually do it for one of two reasons: a specialty service like a hard-to-fit contact lens or ongoing eye disease care, or the eyewear, since our handmade and limited production frames are not the kind of thing you find at a mall optical counter.
What to Expect From an Optometrist Near Maple Grove
A complete exam is the same careful process for every age in the family. Your optometrist reviews your history and vision, measures your prescription, then studies the health of the eye with retinal imaging and an optic nerve assessment, screening for glaucoma, cataracts, and diabetic eye disease that often appear before any symptoms.
Because the eye lets a doctor view your blood vessels directly, the exam can also catch early signs of diabetes or high blood pressure. We explain everything in plain language before you go.
Plan on an eye checkup every one to two years as an adult, and yearly for kids, contact lens wearers, and anyone managing diabetes.
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.

- Board-certified optometrists who diagnose and manage eye conditions, not just run a screening
- Retinal imaging in routine exams to set a baseline and track changes over the years
- An in-house lab and on-site technicians for reliable lens quality and faster turnaround

Frequently Asked Questions
Is there an Art of Optiks closer to Maple Grove?
Yes. Our Wayzata office on Lake Street is usually a shorter drive from Maple Grove than 50th & France, and it is staffed by the same doctors with the same services. Pick whichever works for your day.
Why would I drive to 50th & France instead?
Some patients prefer that office for its eyewear collection or a specific appointment time. Either way, the clinical care is identical, so distance is really the only thing to weigh.

Yes. We provide pediatric eye care for every age, including young children who are not yet reading, and we are comfortable with nervous first-timers. A first exam is generally recommended around age three.
Can you handle hard-to-fit contact lenses?
Yes. Along with daily and monthly lenses, we fit toric lenses for astigmatism, multifocals, and specialty options like scleral, hybrid, RGP, and Ortho-K, with training for new wearers.
