It is in Suite 100 of the same building as our Carrollwood office, so surgery day happens somewhere you have already been.

  • Eye surgery only — a team that does nothing else all day.
Surgery Day

What to expect at Tampa Surgery Center

Most eye procedures take 10 to 20 minutes. Plan on being here about two to three hours from check-in to discharge.

1

Preoperative visit

Measurements and testing at your Newsom Eye office, plus a Financial Advance Notice form estimating what your insurance will pay and what you would owe.

2

Arrange your ride

You will be sedated and your eye will be dilated, so someone must drive you home. We cannot proceed without a ride arranged.

3

Check in

Bring your insurance card, photo ID and medication list, and follow the fasting instructions your surgical coordinator gave you.

4

Preparation

Dilating and anesthetic drops, then light sedation. Most eye surgery here is done with drops rather than an injection or general anesthesia.

5

The procedure

Usually 10 to 20 minutes with your Newsom Eye surgeon and a team that performs eye surgery every day.

6

Recovery and home

A short stay in recovery, discharge instructions and drops, then home the same day. Your first follow-up is usually the next morning.
