UNSPSC 42294531: Ophthalmic laser lens

In this classification, this commodity indicates a product used as an ophthalmic laser lens during a surgical procedure in a medical setting. US FDA regulates Ophthalmic laser lens under 21 CFR 886.4390 and under FDA product code LQJ. Most nations, for tariff and trade purposes, schedule these products under HS 901320.

UNSPSC 42294531 Ophthalmic laser lens (Commodity) shows minimal relevant recent activity for state and local procurement. The code nominally describes optical components for ophthalmic laser systems, yet the recent opportunities posted under this UNSPSC code are predominantly surgical arthroscopy systems, furniture procurement, and law enforcement equipment—none of which align with the laser lens scope. The California RFBs issued in April 2026 (RFBIS26200858, RFBIS26200859, RFBIS26200860) seek temporomandibular joint arthroscopy kits in 1.9mm, 1.8mm, and 2.7mm configurations, with detailed technical specifications for minimally invasive surgical instrumentation rather than ophthalmic laser components. A Sourcewell cooperative purchasing RFP (#061626, due June 16, 2026) targets law enforcement equipment across multiple Washington state counties and jurisdictions. The mismatch between the code's nominal scope and the actual solicitation content suggests either a tagging error by the issuing bodies or that the code is being applied to a broader surgical instrumentation category than its name indicates.

The geographic concentration appears limited to California (state health procurement through multiple RFBs with May 5, 2026 deadlines) and a multistate cooperative vehicle anchored in Minnesota on behalf of Washington state jurisdictions. The Sourcewell procurement is available to thousands of governmental agencies, higher education institutions, school districts, and tribal governments across the United States and Canada through a framework agreement, though the law enforcement focus remains distinct from ophthalmic laser systems. No recent opportunities reflect actual ophthalmic laser lens procurement from state or local bodies. If this code is intended to capture ophthalmic laser or related optical components, the recent activity does not support active demand under this taxonomy label.
