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.

Procedure list is based on CMS-reported specialty designations. Contact the facility to confirm specific procedures offered.

Have been calling for two weeks to get my referral they keep saying someone will call me back, no one calls be back. Today they assured me someone would call me back, and so I called them to find out they close early on Friday. Good thing this is not an extreme emergency I would be dead by now.

Extreme unaccommadating and has nothing to do with helping people see just want to railroad you into spending more money and do not have the ability to answer such a simple question as can I come in and pick up the glasses I had made by you today with total honesty. I originally choose this establishment because of the fact they were very good in the past with customer service and quite capable of providing quality service. And they were very experienced in the cataract process. Some time has passed since the problem was encountered and I am most pleased to have a good update to share! They have remade the set of glasses there was a miscommunication on and refitted the frames. I am very happy to be able to say that once we communicated properly they went above and beyond to make everything RIGHT! TWO THUMBS UP!!!

Worst experience I've had in a long time. I was paying everything out of pocket and I knew that going in. I also told them I was paying with a certain credit card the day of my consultation. Their response to that at that moment was if you use that credit card you'll be charged an extra 12% interest. So i call my credit card company to tell them there would be 12% interest that the Dr office would be charging me and they said the dr office can't do that. So I proceed knowing I have 0% interest with my credit card company. I set an appointment to get my cataract surgery underway, drive one hour to the appointment. I chose to do the traditional cataract surgery which was a little over $3900 Because the research i did was there was no benefit to the laser cataract surgery which is $2700 more... little do I know that this business doesn't accept my credit card now... So I was told we do not accept your credit card for the TRADITIONAL surgery BUT we do accept it for the LASER surgery. If i would have spent more money they would accept my card... thats not right in my opinion... These people are not looking out for their patients, they're looking out for their pockets. Flat out ridiculous!! Now a couple weeks later I get a bill in the mail from my consultation for two tests they did on my eye... that should have been included in the $275 for the consultation!!
