If you have the following procedure note - would you code 65220 or 65222

Procedure: The patient's head was positioned appropriately to provide adequate exposure of the Left eye using a slit lamp. Anesthesia was obtained using proparacaine drops. Fluorescein staining was performed in the right eye and revealed a corneal less than 1 mm foreign body with the appearance of metal (with a rust ring approximately 1.0 -2.0 mm in diameter) was removed using ophthalmic bur. The rust ring remained

Thank you,

Karen
