Cataract Removal With Lens Implant, Whole-Lens Technique

Vermont rates for HCPCS 66983

This surgery treats a cataract, a clouded lens inside the eye, by removing the entire lens as a single unit, including its surrounding capsule, and replacing it with an artificial lens implant. Unlike the technique used in most modern cataract surgery, this approach does not break the lens into smaller pieces before removing it. It is used far less often today than the standard modern technique.
