Temporary Eyelid Closure With Stitches

New Jersey rates for HCPCS 67875

This is a procedure that temporarily closes the eyelids together using stitches, done to protect the surface of the eye when it can't close or blink normally on its own. It's a short-term measure meant to be reversed once the underlying problem improves. It's much simpler and less permanent than a surgical reconstruction of the eyelid.
