Chicago Cataract Surgeon and Ophthalmologist, Dr. Craig Gerstein opens state-of-the-art office-based surgery in Chicago!

Chicago’s only destination for office-based cataract surgery offers a premium, hassle-free patient experience.

Chicago, IL, July 25, 2025 – Gerstein Eye Institute, the Chicago premier vision correction specialists, now offers office-based cataract surgery in a state-of-the-art iOR® surgery suite. The in-office surgery suite offers patients a reimagined surgical experience without the hassle of a traditional surgery center. Patients can expect a superior experience with more personalized and streamlined care in one convenient location, from initial consultation through post-surgical care.

“By performing surgery in our office, we can provide the most personalized and efficient surgical experience while utilizing the highest level of safety,” says Dr. Craig Gerstein of Gerstein Eye Institute. “Our in-office surgical suite provides a comforting environment with a staff that patients already know and trust. Office-based surgery is a new era of surgery that embraces patients’ well-being and peace of mind. I’m proud to offer this service in the Chicagoland area.”

Why Office-Based Cataract Surgery is Evolving as the New Standard of Care

Fifty years ago, ophthalmic procedures began shifting from hospitals to outpatient ambulatory surgery centers (ASC) as a convenient, safe, and more cost-effective option. We are on the brink of the next cosmic shift in cataract surgery, the transition to office-based surgery – a better solution for patients, doctors, and the healthcare system at large. By providing surgery in our office, we can provide greater access to eyecare with more scheduling availability, efficiency, and convenience for patients.

Patient Benefits:
– Highest safety standards
– Cost-effective
– More convenient access
– Ophthalmic-specialized staff
– Reduced stress & anxiety
– IV-free surgery with no fasting
– Shorter surgery and recovery time
– Overall higher satisfaction
