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.

Waited over two hours to be seen. While waiting overheard them tell other patients they scheduled appointments with the doc that was scheduled for surgery all day. When they scheduled our next appointment they booked at a different office without telling us.

Dr didnt even do a thorough exam. Said it was pink eye. Prescribed antibiotic eye drops. It wasnt getting better. Went somewhere else and they took the time to examine my eye and found that the problem was inflammation deeper in the eye than what pink eye is. I needed steroids and dilating drops. If I hadn't gotten properly diagnosed I could have had permanent vision loss.

BEWARE! My parents are older and went here, they scheduled surgery for my dad for cataracts and he doesn't even have them! And the worst part is they didn't even do an exam! I know it sounds insane but that is EXACTLY what happened. Read the other reviews please.

We had an appointment today at 9:45 an . When we arrived they wanted us to reschedule. Hog wash, they were more worried about the other patients that had more money appointments than us. I would have given you a 0 on review, but that wasn’t an option. We will let everyone know about this train wreck. I wouldn’t send my enemies there. Place is garbage. You cost me money today

The ophthalmologist I saw was really pleasant. His staff were kind, courteous and knowledgeable. The waiting area was pleasant. Now to the reason for my 1-star. I contacted my insurance company after speaking with a helpful staff member regarding the implants the insurance would pay for. I have some questions that I would like answered and have called the office to get the responses. I initially left a message with the billing department- thinking maybe he was in that area. However, he did not call me back. Roughly a week and a half later I called again and got sent to voice-mail. Left a message. Still no call back. Have gone through Facebook messenger, automated message giving a phone number to call. However, upon calling it, automated message plays telling the caller to have a credit card ready so that they can charge you $1.99 to get a voucher/coupon, good for $100, at retailers such as Walmart, Target, etc. No option to get a living, breathing, blood-pumping human being. Totally unacceptable.
