In-Office Cataract & Cosmetic Procedures

We’re proud to announce that cataract surgery can be performed in the comfort of our office, with our specialized and caring staff. This means instead of traveling to a hospital or ASC, your patient’s procedure will be performed right here in our office-based surgical suite. This also eliminates the need for IV sedation. Best of all, in-office surgery at Elmquist Eye Group ensures the highest level of safety and comfort while patient’s enjoy a familiar environment with staff they know and trust.

We use our state-of-the art surgical suite for cataract surgery, refractive lens exchange and oculoplastic procedures like eyelid surgery, all with minimal to moderate anesthetics. Our surgery suite conforms to the same stringent safety and accreditation standards as an ASC or hospital.We minimize exposure to other patients, reducing infection risk. And we have complete control over patient flow to ensure a relaxing, stress-free experience in our private pre- and post-surgery area. This ensures a more comfortable, convenient experience in familiar surroundings.
