Twenty years ago, three Central Ohio eye surgeons opened the very first free-standing surgical center dedicated to eyes in the state of Ohio. While surgical centers are now the standard of care for specialties, in 1996, the Columbus Eye Surgery Center on East Broad Street was revolutionary. The three-man surgical team of Dr. Richard Orlando, Dr. Robin Beran, and the now-retired Dr. Robert Bruce were called “foolish” and “crazy” two decades ago when they founded this groundbreaking center. But today, they’re looked at as true medical visionaries.
When it opened its doors, The Columbus Eye Surgery Center took a major step forward in creating a superior level of eye care in Central Ohio. This first-of-its-kind center has provided a way for thousands of patients to have important procedures done on their eyes without ever having to step foot in a hospital. Patients can have any type of eye surgery performed at the Columbus Eye Surgery Center including cataract, retina, eyelid, glaucoma, cross-eyed corrections, cornea transplants and laser procedures.

A study in Environmental Health Perspectives suggests long-term lead exposure may be a risk factor for primary open-angle glaucoma (POAG), the most common type of this disease.
Cataract prevention begins with nutrition. A diet high in antioxidants, omega-3 fatty acids and colorful fruits and vegetables can preserve healthy vision.
Cataract surgery used to require hospitalization and extended recovery time, but today, it is mainly performed at outpatient surgery centers under local anesthesia.
