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.

They never called me to tell me what time my appointment was; I had to find out from the opthalmologist’s office. I arrived at the appointed time, but the receptionist was too busy processing other patients. I was not seen by the receptionist for over 30 minutes. Then once I was taken back, drops were put in my eyes, my bag was put away, and I was left sitting in the surgical chair for over an hour. I found out later this was due to them being short-staffed and able to use only one of the two operating rooms. Although they were supposed to call patients to adjust their appointments accordingly, they had not done so. All in all, a visit that was supposed to take 1 1/2 to 2 hours took at least 3 hours. This also caused great inconvenience to my husband, who had to miss some scheduled teleconferences in order to pick me up. On the plus side, everyone was kind and courteous and everything medical was done very well.
