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.

Surgery Center is a five star facility! The nurses are absolutely wonderful! Olivia is one of the best and thanks to her for keeping my anxiety at a lower level. Her presence gave me me strength. All the nurses, anesthesiologist, and my Dr. Brendan Langford were rock stars. I would highly recommend you choose this facility for your day surgeries! All staff listens to all your questions and requests to make you feel comfortable and confident in your care!

My surgery here (which was my first surgical procedure ever) was a wonderful experience. From the lady that checked me in to the one who wheeled me to the car, every staff member was so sweet, and I felt well taken care of.

I cannot fully express how amazing my experience was as a patient on 10/4/23. The surrounding circumstances regarding needing the procedure in the first place made for a difficult time emotionally and physically. The staff I encountered took care of me with the utmost kindness, understanding, and respect. Their gentle approach had a very consolatory demeanor, which is not something you always get as a patient, unfortunately. Thank you so much to Dr. McMorries, Calin RN (pre-op), Lindsey RN (OR), Sarah RN (PACU) and Jake (CRNA) for making a difficult time more bearable and for taking outstanding care of me. You were all such a blessing to myself as well as my husband, and it should not go unnoticed. 🤍

Everyone was very friendly and took very good care of my son. Dr Hurst is an amazing doctor. Thank you Surgery Center of Nacogdoches for making this experience the best it could have been. Now he is recovering and I am happy to be receiving text and phone calls to make sure his recovery process is going as it should.
