What 92352 covers

This service covers fitting monofocal spectacles for a person with aphakia, or absence of the eye’s natural lens, in one eye. Aphakia may follow cataract removal. An ophthalmologist or optometrist may provide or report the fitting as part of eye care, with the lens arrangement selected to correct the affected eye. This code is for spectacles, not contact lens fitting, and distinguishes a monofocal design from multifocal aphakic spectacles. The fitting is directed to spectacle correction for the aphakic eye; contact lens fitting codes identify a different optical device.

Medicare assigns this code physician fee schedule status B, meaning it is never paid separately; its payment is included in payment for other services. The code identifies fitting for one eye.

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.
