Can anyone help me with this question?
Surgery was performed in our facility on a patient who had exposed suture in the right eye. I am not able to find this diagnosis code, nor cpt code. This was intraocular surgery for ophthalmology retina specialist. Basically the sutures became exposed, doctor had to go in and close the wound. Can anyone please guide me in the right direction how to code this surgery? Please and thank you!
