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 have nothing but great things to say about my experience here today! Check in was smooth and everyone was very kind. My nurse Karen took great care of me and put me at ease explaining everything and brought me a warm blanket starting out. Dr Nejad did my laser eye procedure and did an amazing job! He is so kind. I felt no pain and was in and out pretty quick. Would highly recommend!

The person who schedule appointments was very rude at me. I was still asking questions for her and she just transferred my call. I asked for the next lady that I was talking to transfer the call for their supervisor and of course she said they do t have anybody that I can complain about the fort lady. I’m very upset I’ll not reschedule any appt for my kids at all there.

Excellent experience! I saw Dr Miller for my surgery. He and the staff were very informative and professional. The surgery was super easy, painless and worked great. The after surgery care was well explained and easy to follow. I highly recommend Minnesota Eye Care for LASIK.
