Dr. Hedges

Dr. Stephen Hedges opened Hedges Eye Care in the Gainesville, Jonesville, and Newberry area in 2020. His practice integrates vision and medical eye care with fashion-forward eyewear in a comfortable, safe, and modern setting.

He is a licensed therapeutic optometrist who completed extensive training in treating all primary eye care conditions including macular degeneration, diabetic retinopathy, glaucoma, and cataracts. Some of his training included time at the Army installation in Stuttgart, Germany, and the Yakima Indian Health Service Center in Yakima, Washington. He has a passion for managing dry eye syndrome and fitting specialty contact lenses for conditions such as keratoconus and other corneal irregularities. Dr. Hedges also co-manages both Lasik and cataract surgery with some of the best surgeons in our area.

Dr. Hedges is excited about creating a practice culture that is centered on patients feeling welcomed, cared for, and educated on how to live better with better vision. He is a friendly, outgoing person who spends the extra time required so patients fully understand their ocular health and how it can affect their general health.

Dr. Hedges lives to spend time with his family, friends, and church community. He married his high school sweetheart and loves parenting his two kids. He also enjoys food, cooking, music, and making memories with people. He is excited to have the opportunity to serve the wonderful people of Gainesville, Jonesville, Newberry, and the surrounding areas and cannot wait to develop lasting positive relationships with his patients.
