Portland Eyecare of South Portland is an optometrist in South Portland, ME. The practice provides routine comprehensive eye exams for patients ages five and older, along with same-day emergency visits, contact lens fittings, and dry eye exams. Services include contact lens fittings for standard, daily disposable, astigmatism, multifocal, scleral, dry eye, and colored lenses.

The practice was purchased in 2018 by Dr. Leah Grotton and Dr. Alexandra Grotton, optometrists and sisters, who continue to operate the office. A complementary retinal scan is performed on every patient as part of their annual exam to detect glaucoma and macular degeneration earlier than traditional methods, a service many other offices charge separately for. The team includes Dr. Leah Grotton, a Scarborough, Maine native who graduated from Eckerd College and earned her Doctor of Optometry from Nova Southeastern College of Optometry in 2013; Dr. Alexandra Grotton, also raised in Scarborough and a graduate of the University of Tampa and Nova Southeastern; and Dr. Andrew Kaper, who joined the practice after earning his Doctor of Optometry from Nova Southeastern in 2016 and relocating to Maine. Both Grotton doctors are members of the American Optometric Association and the Maine Optometric Association.

The office sits on Brighton Avenue, just off Rand Road, near the Maine Turnpike. Amanda C. Rowe Elementary School is roughly 0.4 miles away, and Jewell Falls is about 0.4 miles from the practice. The Sagamore Village neighborhood lies within a short walk to the south.
