Has anyone ever had their doc insert a capsular tension ring during the same surgery that he removes a cataract? [It is in preparation for the IOL to be inserted to the sulcus (vs. the lens capsule) at a later surgery.] Have you figured out how to bill for the insertion of the CTR?

Thanks!
 
I'm not sure that code will work since no IOL was inserted. Any other thoughts would be appreciated.
