2017 Coding Changes: Drainage Devices for Glaucoma

Another two category III codes were created for insertion of an aqueous drainage device:

0449T – Insertion of aqueous drainage device, without extraocular reservoir, internal approach, into the subconjunctival space; initial device

+0450T – each additional device (List separately in addition to code for primary procedure)

For removal use the unlisted CPT code 92499.
