Dr. Jerry Jenks has been involved with optometry his entire life. His father, Dr. Donald Jenks began practicing in Platte City in 1959. After graduating in 1975, Dr Jerry joined his dad and began expanding services to include mobile eye care services for residents in nursing facilities orthokeratology and vision therapy.

In 1995, the nursing home practice became Outreach Eye Care and had expanded to the point that Dr Jerry needed to devote fulltime to its management. In 2021, Dr. Jerry decided to merge Outreach Eye Care with a larger multi-specialty group and opened Outreach Vision Performance & Rehabilitation in Platte City. The new practice primarily provides services for neuro-optometric vision therapy, sports vision performance, dry eye therapy and low vision rehabilitation.

In addition, Dr. Jerry uses the “best in class” technology to provide comprehensive vision services for the diagnosis and treatment of binocular vision problems that are associated with vision and learning, ADHD, computer eye fatigue, mild cognitive impairment, post-concussion syndrome and acquired brain injuries.

We would like to encourage you to call us for an appointment. We promise that you will experience a warm, friendly, and courteous atmosphere and leave with the satisfaction that you have received exceptional services that will “WOW” you!
