CPT 92273: Electrophysiologic Test of Retinal Function
CPT code 92273 represents an electrophysiologic test of retinal function—commonly performed as full‑field (Ganzfeld) or flash/focal electroretinography—to assess outer or generalized retinal function. This diagnostic ophthalmic procedure is an important objective measure in evaluating retinal disorders such as retinitis pigmentosa, cone‑rod dystrophies, toxic or drug‑induced retinopathies, and unexplained vision loss, and it supports clinical decision‑making and eligibility determinations for certain therapies.
Key payers in this national analysis include Aetna, Blue Cross Blue Shield, Cigna Health, UnitedHealthcare, and Medicare.
