I am searching for a procedure code, our ASC has an opthamologist who is requesting to perform a squamous cell carcinoma lesion from the sclera by cryotherpy. I am in unfamiliar grounds and could use some help. I do find the 66130, excision of scleral lesion, by the description on the coders desk refernce, it describes snipping the lesion, no mention of any other method of destruction.
Please help

Thank you
Paula
