Precise Eye Measurement For Lens Implant Power

Delaware rates for HCPCS 92136

Before cataract surgery, this test precisely measures the length of the eye and the curvature of its surface using a light-based scanning technique, then uses those measurements to calculate the ideal power for the artificial lens implant that will replace the eye's clouded natural lens. Because it relies on light rather than sound waves, it is generally faster, does not require direct contact with the eye, and tends to be more precise than older contact-based measurement methods. Accurate measurement is critical to achieving the intended vision outcome after cataract surgery.
