VIDEO: Iheezo provides new anesthesia option for ocular surgery
Key takeaways:
- Iheezo has a three-drop dosing protocol and will last for about 20 minutes.
- Iheezo is FDA approved and has a J-code associated with it, making it billable through insurance.
KIAWAH ISLAND, S.C. — In this Healio Video Perspective from Kiawah Eye, Maggie Jeffries, MD, shares why Iheezo is a reliable ocular surface anesthetic option and gives tips on how to use it.
“The studies have shown that in patients using Iheezo, they didn’t need any additional topical ocular anesthetics during surgery, so it was a 100% success rate,” she said.
Iheezo (chloroprocaine hydrochloride ophthalmic gel 3%, Harrow) was approved by the FDA in 2022.
