Care That Starts With Listening

At Maine Family Eye Care, caring for your eyes means caring for you. Dr. Kirsten Turrisi and our team have proudly served families throughout South Portland, ME with comprehensive exams, advanced diagnostic technology, and a genuine interest in every patient who walks through the door.

Whether you’re here for a routine checkup, managing a condition like glaucoma or diabetic eye disease, being fitted for specialty contact lenses, or choosing a new pair of frames, you’ll never feel rushed or talked over. We take the time to explain what we see and what it means, because we believe great vision care is built on trust and lasting relationships. Call (207) 761-9054 to schedule your appointment — we look forward to meeting you.

Our Services in South Portland, ME

Comprehensive care

Comprehensive Eye Exams

Nearsighted, farsighted, or squinting at a monitor by three in the afternoon. A full exam sorts out the prescription and uses digital retinal imaging to check the health of the eye behind it.

Learn More

Contact Lenses

Fittings for daily, monthly and specialty lenses, including the eyes that have been told before that contacts were not an option for them.

Learn More

Frames & Sunglasses

Designer frames and prescription sunglasses on site. Bring the prescription, try things on, and leave with something you will actually wear.

Learn More

Medical & Emergency Eye Care

Cataracts, glaucoma, diabetic eye care, macular degeneration and dry eye treatment. Something in the eye, or vision that changed overnight, gets seen as an emergency.

Learn More

Pediatric & Sports Vision

Children rarely mention that the board is blurry, because to them it has always looked that way. Pediatric exams catch it, and sports vision work sharpens what an athlete already has.

LASIK & Surgery Co-Management

The surgeon operates, we handle the rest. Evaluation beforehand and follow-up care afterwards happen here in South Portland instead of an hour down the road.
