Dr. Austin Potter

Dr. Potter

Dr. Austin Potter grew up in a large family (Dr. Potter is the 4th of 10 children) which taught him the importance of working together and serving others in his family and in the community. Dr. Potter initially became interested in the field of Optometry during his high school years at Greenfield Central High School when a close family member was in need of a corneal transplant. It sparked an interest in helping others with the gift of vision. Dr. Potter went on to Indiana University in Bloomington, Indiana to complete his undergraduate and Optometry degree.

After graduation, Dr. Potter wanted to remain close to family and serve the community that he grew up in. He worked in a practice in New Palestine for the past 5 years, when he made the decision to start his own practice.

Dr. Potter lives in Hancock County with his wife and 3 children.

Marie is a transplant from Northern Virginia, Marie went to Lapel High School. After graduation, she spent time outside Chicago and in Kansas City. She moved back to the Indy area in November 2022 and has been a part of Potter Family Eye Care since Pi Day 2023.

Growing up, she knew nothing about optics other than she needed corrective lenses to function.
Now, she is a Board Certified optician with an Advanced Certified designation, and she is working toward her Master Optician status.

Because she had several pairs of glasses growing up that were reminiscent of Sally Jessy Raphael combined with a boot camp service person, she loves helping our patients find the perfect pair that is both stylish and functional.

She uses her optics background to fit her patients in frames that will work well with our Doctors’ prescriptions. As she likes to say, “In addition to looking fabulous, we want you to see stuff.”

She has a background as an interior decorator and floral designer and as an instructor at IUK, teaching color analysis and hue enhancement classes. She has an amazing sense of style and fashion.

Debbie believes that “all frames should tell a story and make a statement and showcase an individual’s personality.
