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 am a patient a Key-Whitman Eye Center in McKinney Tx. Actually I am a fairly patient and I would like to say that I feel like I have been going there and being treated fir years. Why am I saying this? Glad you asked!! The staff from the front desk to the back office treated me like Gold. Very honest, direct, sweet but fair. Patient care is the top priority. They will bend over backwards to accommodate your requests. I have to give a very special mention of Mrs Melanie Williams. She is the sweet, kind, very professional soul that greet all the patients up front. This LADY......OH MY GOODNESS. She is truly an asset to this clinic.

The care we have received at Heritage Eye Center has been exceptional. It is like a well oiled machine; it is clean, organized, they run on time and Dr Patel and his staff explains things clearly. We didn’t think it could get better, but on Monday, July 7, 2025 two new to me medical assistants who were impressive. One in particular put his hand on the back of my head and I could feel myself relax. I believe his name was Caden and he is a keeper …. they both are.

My wife and I have recently had cataract surgery here. We fully recommend the knowledgeable doctors and staff. The whole office has a friendly and caring attitude. My mono-vision is great. Close up is perfect and I rarely need glasses for distance. We are very pleased!

I went in with a painful eye issue that needed urgent attention, and I couldn’t be more grateful for the immediate pain relief and exceptional care I received at Heritage Eye Center. From the moment I walked in, the staff was welcoming, professional, and efficient. The front desk team made check-in seamless, and I didn’t have to wait long before being seen. The doctors and medical staff took the time to thoroughly evaluate my condition, explain everything clearly, and answer all my questions with patience and expertise. Their level of compassion and attention to detail gave me complete confidence in my care. I highly recommend Heritage Eye Center to anyone in need of quality eye care. They truly go above and beyond!
