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 had a rapidly developing eyesight situation, called in the morning and by 3pm was walking out after emergency retinal laser surgery. A month later my vision was fully recovered. When modern medicine does work it can be like magic. Thank you doctors and staff.

The staff were rude and abrupt. They were all on edge. What happened to the friendly welcoming place where I had my eye surgery years ago? Much has changed and not for the best interest of the patients.

I was recommended to come here by over 15 people. The service was excellent. Everyone was kind and the MD's are top notch. Yes, its a factory. So what? Its the result that matters. I had 2 cataract surgeries and am 150% satisfied.

I had a corneal abrasion and an orbital fracture. I was very scared going into the office. Firstly, I was treated with such kindness by the receptionist. Upon meeting the ophthalmologist assistant she was very helpful and personable. The ophthalmologist made me feel very comfortable and was very knowledgeable. He made sure I left there with every single bit of information possible to take care of my needs and ensure I would heal properly. I highly recommend this place.
