Destruction of eye fluid (vitreous) between lens and retina and all of retina using a laser

This service was performed 13 times for 11 patients

This service was performed 21 times for 16 patients

Laser repair to improve eye fluid flow

Laser repair to improve eye fluid flow is a procedure aimed at treating glaucoma. A laser is used to create a small hole in the eye's drainage system, allowing fluid to flow out more easily. This helps to lower the pressure inside the eye, reducing the risk of vision loss.

This service was performed 35 times for 25 patients

Photocoagulation treatment to prevent detachment of retina

Photocoagulation is a procedure used to treat retinal disorders. A special laser is directed at the retina to create small burns. These burns form scar tissue which helps to secure the retina to the eye's wall, preventing detachment and preserving vision.

This service was performed 19 times for 16 patients

Removal of eye fluid

Removal of eye fluid, also known as vitrectomy, is a surgical procedure used to treat eye problems by removing the vitreous, a gel-like substance filling the eye. This allows easier access to the back of the eye for treatment. It helps improve or stabilize vision.

Removal of recurring cataract in lens capsule using a laser

This procedure, known as YAG laser capsulotomy, treats cloudiness in the lens capsule following cataract surgery. A laser is used to create a small hole in the cloudy capsule, allowing light to pass through and restore clear vision. It's a quick, painless procedure.

This service was performed 47 times for 44 patients

NPI Validation Check Digit Calculation


The following table explains the step by step NPI number validation process using the ISO standard Luhn algorithm.

Start with the original NPI number, the last digit is the check digit and is not used in the calculation.
1245358050
Step 1: Double the value of the alternate digits, beginning with the rightmost digit.
22856516010
Step 2: Add all the doubled and unaffected individual digits from step 1 plus the constant number 24.
2 + 2 + 8 + 5 + 6 + 5 + 1 + 6 + 0 + 1 + 0 + 24 = 60
Step 3: because the number obtained in step 2 ends in zero, the check digit is zero.
0

The NPI number 1245358050 is valid because the calculated check digit 0 using the Luhn validation algorithm matches the last digit of the original NPI number.
