Implanting A Slow-Release Drug Device In The Eye

South Dakota rates for HCPCS 67027

A small drug-containing implant is placed inside the eyeball, in the jelly-filled space at the back, so medicine is released steadily over an extended period. Some of the jelly is removed as part of the same operation to make room for the device. It is used for conditions needing continuous treatment inside the eye rather than repeated injections.
