Procedures Performed

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

Ophthalmology (Eye Surgery)6
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.

I had cataract surgury on 2 4 26. And let me tell you it was the best experience I have ever had. From checking in to the nurses to the anesthesia man then the Dr Alex Cohen. They made you feel comfortable so you are not nervous at all. I have to go back on the 18th for my left eye and j am excited to go. So if you need cataract surgury go see Dr Alex Cohen with Arizona Eye Soecialist . He is the best as far as I am concern.

I had the most wonderful experience at this outpatient surgical center. Dr. Kanda was wonderful in every way. Her bedside manner, her knowledge and compassion and the most wonderful outcome hyphen I can see again. Also Ellie who was the surgical nurse What’s phenomenal as well as the anesthesiologist. The people at the front desk were wonderful and it could not have been a better experience.

It was my first cataract operation. Went pretty quickly. I wasn’t sure what to expect and pretty anxious. Glad the anesthesiologist recognized this and gave me a little help with medication. Nurses were quick and thorough with the prep. The procedure I just saw lights and some movement and no discomfort. All good.

It was a great experience, professional and knowledgeable staff and doctors. I was especially impressed with my personal nurse Kia (not sure if I spelled her name correctly) she made the little time I had dealt with her ,an exceptionally pleasant and soothing time and she was fun and funny too. Although it was a bit of a long wait, or maybe it just felt longer than it was ( about 3 to 4 hrs) . The experience was great. I had my right eye done and am going back for my left in a few days or weeks. As for my right eye I can see clearer then I think I have ever seen in my life. I want to thank the doctors and staff for a great job and over all great experience. Highly recommend them for your eye needs.
