Procedures Performed

Common outpatient procedures performed at this ambulatory surgery center, based on reported specialties.

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.

This surgical center is very busy and modern state of the art facility. I am semi retired with lots of time to spare to address my health concerns. I had a 920am arrival time. That's the time they want you to arrive because it's a very busy place. I had to wait about an hour. I was brought back into a prep room and swarmed over by about a dozen ancillary medical personnel. About an hour later I was wheeled into the operating room. After being wrapped like a mummy and about 30 minutes after consuming midazolam that was the last thing I remember of my cataract surgery. The next thing I remember vaguely is being placed in my wife's car for transportation home. I am very happy and pleased with this whole process that was orderly, efficient, and carried out and supervised by very caring and competent personnel in addition to my surgEON.

Great service and staff but finding their payment portal is like a needle in a haystack. Too much cross over with VA Eye Consultants, multiple websites, payment vendors, etc. It is beyond frustrating and doesn't need to be this complicated...if they want people to pay their bills. Statements don't even include a URL for payments - only phone or mail. Unacceptable.

Had and appointment for father for cataract surgery at 8 am this morning. Got here at 7:45 check in and proceeded to wait in the waiting room for 2 hrs. And still haven't been called back. Then they tell me it's not an appointment it is an arrival time. This isn't an airport. The person I made THE APPOINTMENT with didn't say repair to be waiting over 2 hours. Total BS

My Mom had Yag laser eye surgery yesterday morning, and the surgery center looked very new, and aesthetically pleasing. The staff were friendly and efficient, and the procedure was very quick for her vision in the right eye.

I loved it. People get the surgery center confused with Virginia Eye Center. The CVP Surgery Center is just across the street from VEC and is the surgery center division of VEC - and it is a well run, well organized and very efficient operation with outstanding facilities and support. I am very happy to say that having cataract surgery here is a great experience and as stress free as these types of things can be. Since they do hundreds of procedures every week, they are also VERY experienced, know what they are doing, and produce excellent results and outcomes. I don't think you could get any better than this anywhere in the US for this type of surgery. Scheduling is meticulous and well organized, and with experience here with four surgeries there is virtually no waiting to get in or out. Everything happens on time and on schedule, both from experience and observation of others here at the Center. Highly recommended.
