UNSPSC 85551700: Choroid, sclera and corneal structures, open approach

This class includes one or more of 24 standard surgical interventions or procedures on component parts of the choroid, sclera and corneal structures, open approach. These surgical interventions or procedures are listed in the World Health Organization's International Statistical Classification of Diseases and Related Health Problems or ICD-10 PCS under code 08.

UNSPSC 85551700 Choroid, sclera and corneal structures, open approach is a Class code with minimal recent state and local procurement activity directly aligned to its nominal scope. The four opportunities posted in the source between February and April 2026—inmate medical and pharmacy services for a county prison, pharmacy benefit management for a county health consortium, virtual primary and urgent care services for a county workforce, and peer support services for mental health workers—do not involve ophthalmic surgical procedures or corneal interventions. The code appears to have been applied to these solicitations as a taxonomy mismatch rather than reflecting the actual work being procured, which centers on general medical administration, pharmacy management, and behavioral health support services across institutional and public-employee health plan contexts.

Geographic activity in the source spans Florida (Collier County and Monroe County), Georgia (Muscogee County), and California (San Mateo County), with issuing bodies including county boards of commissioners, county health departments, and a municipal fire department. No repeat buyers appear in the recent-opportunities block. Because the code shows no genuine recent state and local procurement activity in ophthalmologic surgical services, corneal procedures, or scleral interventions, business development professionals should treat this code as currently inactive for state and local contracting purposes and monitor whether future opportunities correctly apply ophthalmic procedure codes when those services are actually solicited.
