Destruction of Eye Surface Growth

Ohio rates for HCPCS 68135

This procedure removes a growth on the clear membrane covering the white part of the eye using a method such as freezing, burning, or a laser, rather than cutting it out with a scalpel. It treats a growth on this surface that is causing irritation, cosmetic concern, or needs to be removed for evaluation. Because the tissue is destroyed rather than excised in one piece, this method is chosen for certain types of smaller or superficial growths.
