Eye Drainage Implant Into The Supraciliary Space

North Carolina rates for HCPCS 0474T

A tiny drainage device is placed inside the eye, working from within through a small incision, to create a channel for fluid to leave the front of the eye into the supraciliary space, a natural layer within the eye wall. Improving the outflow of fluid lowers the pressure inside the eye. The device is not visible from outside.
