Truck crashes into Willoughby eye clinic, causing significant damage

Officials say the driver of the truck suffered a medical episode.

WILLOUGHBY, Ohio — A Lake County eye clinic has been forced to temporarily close after a pickup truck slammed into its offices early Thursday morning.

Officials at For Your Eyes Only, on State Road in Willoughby, say the driver of the truck suffered a medical episode which caused them to slam into the building. Photos of the aftermath show the vehicle through the front window and inside the lobby, which suffered massive damage.

The clinic says it will reopen once it rebuilds, although how long that will take remains unknown. In the meantime, customers can still pick up contacts and glasses by appointment, and calls will be handled by the clinic's answering service.
