UNSPSC 85551356: Removal of synthetic substitute from right eye, open approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to removal of synthetic substitute from right eye, open approach. 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 08P00JZ

UNSPSC 85551356 "Removal of synthetic substitute from right eye, open approach" is a Commodity code that shows no relevant recent activity in state and local procurement. The code describes a specific ophthalmic surgical procedure, yet the recent opportunities tagged under it encompass occupational medical surveillance, pension disability benefit evaluations, pharmacy benefit management, surgical carve-out networks, emergency detention healthcare, and temporary health professional staffing — none of which relate to synthetic eye substitute removal or ophthalmic surgery generally. The mismatch indicates a classification error in the source data rather than active demand for this particular procedure at the state and local level.

State and local procurement under this code should not be pursued based on current evidence. The opportunities posted since August 2026 span diverse issuing bodies (the Washington State Department of Transportation, City of Phoenix Retirement Office, City of Long Beach, Harris County Juvenile Probation Department, Collier County, and Santa Clara County Health System) across different service lines, but none target ophthalmic procedure services or eye surgery. A business development professional tracking this UNSPSC code should monitor for corrected tagging or emerging ophthalmic procedure demand among state health plans, Medicaid managed care entities, or public employee health benefit programs, but current posted activity does not justify active pursuit.
