UNSPSC 85551444: Replacement of left lens with synthetic substitute, percutaneous approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to replacement of left lens with synthetic substitute, percutaneous 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 08RK3JZ

UNSPSC 85551444, Replacement of left lens with synthetic substitute, percutaneous approach, is a Commodity code that shows little relevant recent state and local procurement activity. The recent opportunities tagged to this code do not involve ophthalmic surgical procedures or implantable lens products; instead, they span occupational medical surveillance, pharmacy benefit management, temporary health professional staffing, independent medical evaluation services, and specialty surgical care coordination through centers of excellence networks. The code's nominal scope — a specific surgical procedure and implant — does not align with what state and local governments are actually soliciting under this classification.

State and local activity under this code is not substantively represented in recent postings. No opportunities directly procure ophthalmic lenses, cataract surgery services, or related implantable medical devices. The mismatch between the code's technical definition and the procurement notices assigned to it suggests either classification error in the source data or that this code does not currently drive meaningful state and local buying activity. Parties pursuing work in ophthalmic surgical supplies, implants, or procedure-based services should verify code assignments through direct contact with soliciting agencies and monitor other UNSPSC families focused on medical devices, surgical supplies, and healthcare services delivery rather than rely on activity under this code.
