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 used to go to the Wooster Eye Center but eventually had Lasik eye surgery so no longer needed them for my eye care. But, they were amazing, all the Doctors are so incredibly down to earth and informative. I also took my mother there who at the time was losing her sight and needed a lot of special care. They treated her so incredibly well, and that was very comforting to see when it came to my loved one getting great care as well. I would recommend the Eye Center to anyone, Dr. Perkins was also great and some of the other Docs that have retired were also amazing.

Doctor Perkins took great care of my 3 year old son! He was great with him and made him feel comfortable. Dr. Perkins was helpful and someone my son felt like he could trust. All nurses were also very helpful and kind. Thank you!

My mom just had cataract surgery. They were very gentle with my elderly mother. She's excited to get her other eye done in 2 weeks.

Cataract surgery can be daunting…but not at Wooster Eye Center. This is a top notch facility with a professional and caring staff. Dr. Chenevey is excellent at what he does. I am grateful to all for restoring my vision to 20/20!
