IRPL (Intense Regulated Pulsed Light)
Thank You very much for the reply. Actually, I was searching for listed CPT code the procedure for IRPL (Intense Regulated Pulsed Light) procedure which is the treatment of the Dry Eye disease. The procedure is technique applied for the stimulation of the Meibomian glands using flash lamp technology. Can anyone help me to find out the procedure code?

You could try 17999-Unlisted procedure, skin, mucous membrane and subcutaneous tissue. This is the code listed for that procedure by one insurance company, although it may not be reimbursed if it's an investigative procedure
