World’s First Microsurgical Ribbon Cutting Performed in Midlothian

Texas Eye and Cataract (T|E|C) officially celebrated the expansion of its presence in Ellis County with a one-of-a-kind milestone event: the World’s First Microsurgical Ribbon Cutting.

Held at T|E|C’s new state-of-the-art facility in Midlothian, the ceremony welcomed community members, healthcare partners, local leaders, physicians, and staff for a guided tour of the clinic and a closer look at the advanced ophthalmic technology now available to patients throughout the region.

During the ceremony, Dr. Deepak Sobti, founder of Texas Eye and Cataract, performed the ribbon cutting using microsurgical scissors after “scrubbing in” alongside his OR prep team. The moment symbolized the precision, innovation, and surgical expertise that define modern eye care at T|E|C.
