California, Florida and Texas each had more than 20 facilities ranked on the “2026 Best Ambulatory Surgery Centers” list published by U.S. News.
The publication evaluated more than 4,400 ASCs for treatment for procedures in four specialty areas, using three years of Medicare data to evaluate the facilities on how successfully they avoided complications, ER visits, unplanned hospitalizations and other undesirable outcomes. Read the full methodology here.
Procedures performed at ophthalmology-focused ASCs include cataract surgery, glaucoma surgery, corneal transplants, laser treatments for retinal disorders and corrective laser eye surgery.
The rankings, which were published March 17, include nearly 300 top-rated ASCs for ophthalmology.
