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.

I was extremely anxious about my cataract surgery today and everyone really put me at ease: staff, nurses, my doctor (Dr. Marcic) and the anesthesiologist. The office runs like a well-oiled machine. I arrived as scheduled at 11:30 for my 12:30 procedure and was in the car on my way home at 1:15. Everything went smoothly and I know I won't be anxious for the 2nd procedure in a couple of weeks.

This was my first encounter with facility. I arrived an hour early per instructions, but I completed all pre-op and just had to turn it in. The facility is quaint, but clean and staff were personable. The appointment took twice as long as it should have, but that was tolerable. It was the front office staff, other patients and back office medical staffers that made all the difference. People don’t have to be kind, but they were apologetic and kind. Of course we laughed and let off steam when their lunch was delivered and we couldn’t eat or drink. At the end of the day, we got what we went for and much more. Kindness, pleasantries and medical treatment from a top doctor.

Worst facility ever. They provide no waiting area for the person to care for the patient after surgery. They told me to sit outside in the cold in my car or in the public lobby where people were coming in and out of the facility with no masks on. The front office staff and the director were rude and they repeatedly threatened to cancel my client's surgery unless I sat outside in the cold or in the public lobby with people that weren't wearing masks. Only one African American staff member was considerate and helpful. We will not be back to this facility. They do not care for patients or caregivers. UPDATE: we've been here since 8 a.m. and it is now 10. I called because the procedure was only supposed to take 30 minutes and no one called me as they said they would. They claim that they can't find a vein after previously telling me that the patient's IV had been successfully inserted. They have now bypassed my client's surgery and took another patient ahead of him and told me to just wait out in the cold until they decide to call me. They refused to give me any information about the time of my client's surgery and once again the person that came to the phone was rude. UPDATE: My client supposedly just went into surgery and now it's going to take an hour instead of half an hour. It's 11 a.m. and I believe that my client's surgery was delayed out of retaliation on their part. At least the lady that answered the phone wasn't rude. UPDATE: After sitting in the cold for four hours my brother, not a staff member called to tell me he was ready to leave. The rude receptionist made disparaging remarks about me to my client. I called to discuss this with the director, "Wanda" but of course she was "busy" and refused to call me back. I am disappointed but not surprised. Rude and unprofessional employees are the downfall of companies and a.reflection of their employers
