Ophthalmic surgery

About 68330: Symblepharon repair without graft

Repairs symblepharon by releasing conjunctival scar adhesions and restoring separation of the eyelid and eye surfaces without a graft.

Symblepharon is an adhesion between the conjunctiva lining the eyelid and the conjunctiva covering the eye, often following injury, inflammation, or prior surgery. For this repair, an ophthalmic surgeon releases the scar-related attachment and reshapes the involved tissue to restore separation, without placing a graft. The procedure may be performed in an office-based surgical setting or a facility, depending on the case and the surgeon’s approach.

Report 68330 when the operative work repairs symblepharon without a graft; a repair that uses a free conjunctival or buccal mucous membrane graft is represented by a different code. The operative note should identify the adhesion and describe its release and repair, including the side treated. CMS assigns 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%. In a same-session multiple-procedure setting, the highest-valued procedure is paid in full and others at 50%. Assistant-at-surgery payment requires documented medical necessity; co-surgeons and team surgery are not permitted.

68330 billing questions

When should 68330 be chosen instead of 68335?

Use 68330 for symblepharon repair without a graft. Use 68335 when the repair includes a free conjunctival or buccal mucous membrane graft.

Can conjunctival adhesion release be billed separately?

Release of the adhesion is part of repairing the symblepharon. Do not separately report 68340 for the same release when it is integral to the repair.

How is bilateral repair reported?

For bilateral surgery, report modifier 50. CMS pays bilateral procedures at 150%.

What documentation supports 68330?

Document the symblepharon, the affected side, and the operative work releasing and repairing the adhesion. The note should make clear that no graft was used.

How does the 90-day global period affect postoperative visits?

The day-before preoperative visit and 90 days of related postoperative care are included in the global period.

Where these rates come from

FeeBase calculates base physician payments from CMS work, practice-expense, and malpractice RVUs, adjusted by each locality’s geographic indices and the applicable conversion factor. Unavailable or separately priced services are labeled rather than assigned a made-up amount.
