This measurement 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 4A07X0Z

UNSPSC 85821106 Measurement of visual acuity, external approach is a Commodity code. State and local governments procure under this code infrequently and tangentially; recent opportunities show minimal direct alignment with the nominal scope. The available records span medical director services, EMS revenue billing, inmate healthcare, occupational health screening, employee wellness programs, background screening, and various clinical services—none of which center on visual acuity measurement or optometric assessment. The few entries closest to the code's scope (occupational health exams, health clinic services, and employee screening programs) may incidentally include vision screening as part of routine physicals, but visual acuity measurement does not appear to drive or define the procurement strategy in any recent solicitation. Geographic activity spans Florida, Texas, Oregon, Georgia, and Nevada, but this reflects general healthcare and occupational medicine contracting rather than demand specific to visual acuity services.

The code shows no recent opportunities with visual acuity measurement as a primary deliverable or even a named line item. Procurement activity under this code appears either dormant or systematically miscoded in state and local systems. A business development professional evaluating this code should verify whether recent solicitations tagged to 85821106 are actually ordering optometric or vision-screening services, or whether the code is being applied to broader occupational health and medical surveillance work where vision testing is incidental. If pursuing this code, confirm with issuing bodies that visual acuity measurement represents a standalone service line in their contracting plans; current posted activity does not support material opportunity in this commodity.
