The Minnesota Eye Laser & Surgery Centers are state-of-the-art outpatient surgery centers, which allow surgeons to provide the most comprehensive ophthalmology and reconstructive surgeries in a convenient, comfortable setting. The Minnesota Eye Laser & Surgery Centers serve the physicians and patients of Minnesota Eye Consultants and Northwest Eye. The philosophy of the Ambulatory Surgery Center (ASC) is to promote the skills and knowledge of its personnel to facilitate the enhancement of our patients’ quality of life by improving their vision in a cost-effective, research-based and technologically advanced setting.
For patients undergoing surgery in our ASC, a Pre-operative History and Physical is required within 60 days of the procedure. Please wait to schedule this until surgery dates have been booked, as this exam is time sensitive and will need to be repeated if it falls outside of the 60-day window.
Within one week of your procedure, you can expect a call from our pre-operative specialist to review a variety of reminders and instructions. They will discuss with you the surgery and arrival time, eating and drinking restrictions and any other instructions related to your specific procedure. Our pre-operative specialists are happy to answer any remaining questions you may have and will make sure you feel comfortable and prepared for your upcoming surgery.
CONTACT USFollow the appropriate fasting instructions provided during your pre-operative phone call. Depending on the type and time of your procedure, you may be asked to refrain from eating and drinking anything after midnight.
At the time of scheduling the procedure, you will likely receive a surgery folder containing post op appointment information and discharge instructions, etc. Please bring this folder with on surgery day.
If you are undergoing an elective procedure or are opting into an upgraded, non-covered service package, please be aware that we will collect payment at check-in.
Please have a driver accompany you to and from your surgery, and remain in the waiting room while you undergo the procedure. Depending on the surgery, they can plan to be at our facility for 2.5 – 4 hours, considering there’s time needed in both the pre-op and post-op area in addition to the time needed to perform the procedure itself.
