Default 92135 Deleted Code

92132 is for ANTERIOR SEGMENT, unilateral or bilateral
92133 is for POSTERIOR SEGMENT, OPTIC NERVE, unilateral or bilateral
92134 is for POSTERIOR SEGMENT, RETINA, unilateral or bilateral

You will need to know whether it is the anterior or posterior segment and if posterior, then you will need to know whether it was the optic nerve or the retina. Hope this helps.
