Removal Of A Foreign Object From The Cornea

Nebraska rates for HCPCS 65222

This procedure removes an object, such as a small piece of metal, wood, or debris, that has become embedded in the cornea, the clear front surface of the eye. The clinician uses a slit lamp, a specialized microscope that magnifies and illuminates the eye, to precisely locate and remove the object under direct visualization. Removing the foreign body helps prevent infection, scarring, and further damage to the eye's surface.
