UNSPSC 85551237 Replacement of right sclera with synthetic substitute, external approach is a Commodity code that shows little relevant recent activity aligned with its nominal scope. The recent state and local opportunities tagged under this code span occupational medical surveillance, independent medical evaluations for pension disability determinations, surgical benefit carve-out programs, pharmacy benefit management, temporary health professional staffing, emergency medical services for detained youth, and specialty medical care networks — none of which involve ophthalmic surgical implants or scleral replacement procedures. The mismatch between the code's clinical specificity and the broad healthcare administration and staffing services actually being solicited suggests this code is either misapplied in state and local procurement systems or sees minimal relevant procurement activity at the state and local level.

The issuing bodies posting under this code include state departments (Washington State Department of Transportation, representing the Washington State Ferries), counties (Collier County Board of County Commissioners, Harris County Juvenile Probation Department, County of Santa Clara), and cities (City of Phoenix, City of Long Beach). Recent solicitations span the second and third quarters of 2026, with response dates in late September and early October 2026. Representative opportunities include the Washington State Department of Transportation's RFP for occupational medical surveillance services (RFP20260825, due October 9, 2026), the City of Phoenix Retirement Office's RFP for independent medical evaluation services supporting pension disability determinations (RTMRFP26001, due October 16, 2026), and the County of Santa Clara Health System's non-exclusive multiple-award qualification vehicle for temporary health professional staffing (RFSQHHSFY270052, due October 7, 2026). Geographic activity appears concentrated in Washington State, Arizona, California, Florida, and Texas, though the source shows no pattern that would support a reliable characterization of the code's underlying procurement momentum.
