UNSPSC 42294206: Ophthalmic surgery instrument sets

In this classification, this commodity indicates a product used as a set of Ophthalmic surgery instrument during a surgical procedure in a medical setting. US FDA regulates Ophthalmic surgery instrument sets under 21 CFR 878.48 and under FDA product code KDD. Most nations, for tariff and trade purposes, schedule these products under HS 901890.

UNSPSC 42294206 Ophthalmic surgery instrument sets is a Commodity code that does not show recent state and local procurement activity aligned with its stated scope. The five recent opportunities tagged under this code procure law enforcement equipment (Sourcewell cooperative purchasing vehicle), career and technical education instructional resources (Klein Independent School District, Texas), temporomandibular joint arthroscopy systems and accessories (State of California, three separate RFBs), and outpatient building furniture (State of California). Only the California arthroscopy procurements touch surgical instrumentation, and those systems are designed for TMJ procedures rather than ophthalmic work; the remaining four opportunities—covering law enforcement gear, school district CTE supplies, and healthcare facility furniture—fall entirely outside ophthalmic instrument scope.

The State of California issued three RFBs for arthroscopy accessory systems (1.9mm, 1.8mm, and 2.7mm variants) with a posted date of April 16, 2026, and a bid due date of May 5, 2026, each requiring Certified Business Enterprise (CBE) certification documentation and mandatory compliance forms. These represent the only recent opportunities with any surgical-instrument dimension, yet they address joint surgery rather than eye surgery and do not match the code's nominal focus on ophthalmic instruments. The Sourcewell RFP #061626 for Law Enforcement Equipment (due June 16, 2026) and Klein ISD RFP #26-101 for Career Technical Education and Advanced Academics (due June 5, 2026) are wholly unrelated to ophthalmic or surgical instrumentation. No issuing bodies are repeat buyers under this code in the recent opportunities block, and no geographic concentration emerges beyond California's arthroscopy procurements. The code shows little relevant recent activity and does not support a meaningful characterization of state and local buying patterns for ophthalmic surgery instruments.
