Bouchey Eye Surgery

Bouchey Eye Surgery is an ophthalmology service provided by Dr. Reed Bouchey, operating as part of the broader Great River Health system. Located at 501 S White St # 105, Mt Pleasant, IA, this clinic offers a wide range of medical and surgical treatments for various eye conditions. Dr. Reed Bouchey is a highly-rated ophthalmologist, recognized for his expertise in treating conditions like cataracts, late-onset retinal degeneration, age-related macular degeneration (ARMD), and astigmatism. The ophthalmology department at Great River Health, which includes Bouchey Eye Surgery, is equipped with high-tech equipment comparable to larger eye clinics nationwide. While they do not provide glasses or contact lens fittings directly, they furnish patients with prescriptions to be filled at a retail location of their choice. Services offered encompass the treatment of medical conditions and injuries of the eye. This includes comprehensive care for cataracts, with "dropless surgery" offered, as well as management of corneal abrasions, diabetic retinopathy, eyelid surgery, foreign-body removal, glaucoma, lesion removal, and post-cataract vision problems. They also address various retina conditions, such as diabetic retinopathy, macular degeneration, and retinal vein occlusion. In addition to surgical interventions, the clinic offers in-office laser treatments using Argon, YAG, and SLT lasers for conditions like diabetic retinopathy, post-cataract vision problems, and specific types of glaucoma. Patients do not require a referral to schedule an appointment. The clinic accepts medical insurance only, not vision insurance, and will submit claims on behalf of patients. A first office visit typically lasts one to two hours and includes a medical history review, eye dilation, and a complete eye examination, potentially with additional testing.
