About 67105: Retinal detachment repair by photocoagulation

Reports repair of an established retinal detachment using photocoagulation, with subretinal fluid drainage included when performed as part of the service.

An ophthalmologist uses photocoagulation to treat an established retinal detachment, creating a chorioretinal adhesion to secure the retina. Subretinal fluid drainage may be performed as part of the repair. The service is distinct from preventive treatment of a retinal break before detachment has occurred, and from repairs performed using other techniques such as cryotherapy, pneumatic retinopexy, or scleral buckling.

Report 67105 when the operative documentation supports repair of a retinal detachment by photocoagulation; document the detachment, treatment method, and any drainage performed. The code has a 10-day global period, so related postoperative visits during that period are included. For multiple procedures in the same session, the highest-valued procedure is paid in full and others at 50%. Bilateral reporting with modifier 50 is paid at 150%. Assistant-at-surgery payment is restricted; co-surgeons and team surgery are not permitted.
