Advanced Cataract Surgery Facility Serving Long Beach and Southern California
SoCal Eye is one of the few ophthalmology practices in Los Angeles County that operates its own Ambulatory Surgery Center (ASC) dedicated exclusively to eye care. Our modern eye surgery center in Lakewood is where the vast majority of cataract surgeries performed by SoCal Eye surgeons take place.
This specialized surgical facility allows our ophthalmologists to provide patients with the highest level of safety, efficiency, and personalized care. Because the center focuses solely on ophthalmology procedures, our team is able to deliver a streamlined surgical experience designed specifically for patients undergoing cataract surgery and other eye procedures.
For patients throughout Long Beach, Lakewood, Seal Beach, Los Alamitos, and surrounding communities, the SoCal Eye ASC provides a comfortable and convenient alternative to hospital-based surgery.
Why an Ambulatory Surgery Center Matters
An Ambulatory Surgery Center (ASC) is a modern outpatient surgical facility where procedures are performed without requiring an overnight hospital stay. For cataract surgery, ASCs are widely considered the gold standard for efficiency, safety, and patient comfort.
By performing surgery in a dedicated eye surgery center rather than a hospital, patients benefit from:
Faster scheduling for procedures
Shorter wait times on the day of surgery
Lower overall healthcare costs
Highly specialized surgical teams
A quieter, more comfortable environment
Because our facility is owned and operated by SoCal Eye, every aspect of the surgical experience is carefully designed to prioritize patient safety, comfort, and exceptional outcomes.
