Cataract Removal With Lens Implant

Minnesota rates for HCPCS 66984

Cataract surgery removes the eye's clouded natural lens and replaces it with a clear artificial lens implant, restoring vision that has become blurry or dim. The surgeon breaks up and gently removes the lens through a small incision using an ultrasonic instrument, then positions the new lens implant during the same visit to the operating room. This is the standard, most commonly performed approach to cataract removal, without added complexity from prior eye surgery, unusual anatomy, or a very young patient.
