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.

Had both eyes done here with great success. Just a heads up with Google maps, Google will send you to an orthodontist building on Mitary Rd instead on the actual location.

Everyone we encountered through the whole process from check in to discharge was great. Everyone was friendly and answered all of our questions. My next procedure coming up will be a lot less stressful now after receiving such great care here. Highly recommend this surgery center!

I recently brought my mom in for her cataract surgery… I can’t say enough about the amazing care she received… from the front desk at check in all the way through to recovery and the post operative care she received…the staff was attentive and answered all the questions we had and put our minds at ease. We will be returning next week and already feel confident that we are in the best of hands ! Thank you to all of your caring staff!! We couldn’t be happier with the care we received at your center!!
