What 67906 covers
CPT 67906 reports surgical correction of blepharoptosis using a superior rectus-based technique with a fascial sling to elevate the upper eyelid. An ophthalmologist, commonly an oculoplastic surgeon, performs this operation when the selected repair uses this specific muscle-and-sling approach. The code is selected by the technique documented, not simply because ptosis is severe or congenital.
The operative report should identify the affected eyelid, describe the superior rectus and sling technique, and support the medical need for repair. This major surgery has a 90-day global period, including the day-before preoperative visit and 90 days of related postoperative care. For bilateral surgery, modifier 50 is paid at 150%. When multiple procedures are performed in the same session, the highest-valued procedure is paid in full and the others at 50%. Assistant-at-surgery payment is restricted; co-surgeons and team surgery are not permitted.
This summary was written with AI assistance from CMS physician fee schedule data and checked against the CMS billing rules shown here. Rates on this page come directly from CMS files.

Where these rates come from
FeeBase calculates base physician payments from CMS work, practice-expense and malpractice RVUs, adjusted by each locality’s geographic indexes and the conversion factor. Services without a published rate are labeled, never given a made-up amount. Amounts are Medicare allowed amounts before claim adjustments: not a patient’s bill or a commercial rate.
