Fitting and adjustment of spectacles and contact lenses

This code signifies a patient encounter primarily focused on the selection, measurement, and modification of eyeglasses or contact lenses. It covers the process of ensuring proper vision correction and comfortable fit for optical devices.

Use this code for routine eye exams where new spectacles or contact lenses are prescribed and fitted, or for follow-up visits to adjust existing eyewear. It is appropriate for encounters where the main service is related to the dispensing or modification of vision correction devices.

• Do not use for routine vision exams without fitting or adjustment services.
• Always code with an accompanying diagnosis for the underlying vision condition (e.g., myopia, hyperopia, astigmatism).
• This code is for the fitting service itself, not the supply of the spectacles or contact lenses.
