Cutting Scar Bands Behind the Cornea

New Mexico rates for HCPCS 65880

Divides strands of scar tissue that have formed between the jelly filling the eye and the back surface of the cornea, the clear window at the front. Those bands tug on the cornea and the structures around it, distorting the eye and clouding sight. Fine instruments are introduced through a small incision to cut them free.
