This surgical intervention or procedure is listed in the World Health Organization's International Statistical Classification of Diseases and Related Health Problems or ICD-10 as code 08UD07Z

UNSPSC 85551317 Supplement left iris with autologous tissue substitute, open approach is a Commodity code that shows no relevant recent state and local procurement activity. The five recent opportunities posted under this code involve inmate medical and pharmacy services, pharmacy benefit management for county employees, virtual primary and urgent care services, peer support for mental health peer workers, and fire department medical director services—none of which involve ophthalmic surgical procedures or iris supplementation. This code mismatch suggests the opportunities were tagged incorrectly in the source system and do not reflect actual buying activity under this surgical-procedure code.

State and local procurement offices in Georgia, Florida, and California posted these opportunities, but the underlying work (correctional healthcare administration, employee health plan management, virtual telemedicine platforms, behavioral health peer support, and EMS medical oversight) falls outside the scope of ophthalmologic tissue-replacement surgery that the code nominally describes. No state or local agency among the issuers—Columbus Consolidated Government, Collier County, Monroe County, San Mateo County, and Santa Monica—appears to be soliciting ophthalmic surgical supplies or services. Without evidence of genuine demand for iris supplementation procedures in recent state and local RFPs, IFBs, or other notices, this code should be deprioritized in favor of health-care delivery, management, and support codes that actually reflect the procurement patterns shown in the source.
