Procedures Performed

Common outpatient procedures performed at this ambulatory surgery center, based on reported specialties.

Cataract SurgeryThe clouded natural lens of the eye is removed and replaced with a clear artificial one. It is one of the most common outpatient procedures performed in the country, usually takes under 30 minutes per eye, and is done under light sedation with numbing drops rather than general anesthesia.LASIK / Refractive SurgeryA laser reshapes the cornea to correct nearsightedness, farsightedness, or astigmatism, reducing dependence on glasses or contacts. The procedure itself takes minutes per eye. Vision is often noticeably better within a day, though it can take several weeks to fully stabilize.Glaucoma SurgeryCreates a new drainage path for fluid inside the eye to lower internal pressure. Glaucoma damages the optic nerve silently, so the goal is preventing further vision loss rather than restoring vision already lost. Several minimally invasive options are now performed in outpatient settings.Retinal SurgeryRepairs the light-sensitive tissue at the back of the eye, most often for a detached or torn retina, or for bleeding related to diabetes. Timing matters — a detaching retina is treated urgently because delay increases the risk of permanent vision loss.Eyelid Surgery (Blepharoplasty)Removes excess skin and fat from the upper or lower eyelids. When drooping upper lids block part of the visual field, the procedure is functional rather than cosmetic and is often covered by insurance if visual field testing documents the obstruction.Corneal TransplantReplaces damaged or clouded corneal tissue with donor tissue. Modern techniques often replace only the affected layer rather than the full thickness, which shortens recovery. Vision improves gradually over months, and stitches may stay in place for a year or longer.

Excellence job to all the staff at the Fairhope Surgery Center. They are all kind considerate and 100% professional in every way possible. I don't think I could find a better place to have my procedures done. Thanks, so much. Lt. Terry Sumlin.

I never knew this place was so big inside for GI and other procedures BUT staff and nurses (especially Nurse Terri) were so nice and very efficient and so clean! If I had a choice between the hospital or here, I would definitely choose this one without any hesitation.

Had a minor procedure done at the Fairhope Surgery Center, and all I can say is that everyone there was wonderful. From the front desk staff to the nurses and doctors, everyone was kind and professional. Most people don't want to be at a surgery center at all, but if you have to be, this is the place to go. Highly recommend!
