Modern cataract surgery is usually a no-needle, no-stich, no-patch 10-15 minute procedure. Most cases are performed with just drop anesthesia (topical) and mild sedation. Dr. Goodman can perform your surgery with laser (femtosecond laser assisted cataract surgery) or in standard fashion with his high precision instruments. This highly successful outpatient surgery can be performed in San Luis Obispo at slosurgerycenter.com or in Santa Maria at premiersurgerycentersm.com. Dr. Goodman has performed over 10,000 cataract and other eye surgeries.”
