How Q02 is structured
89
terminal codes, selectable in a device record
25
branch headings, not selectable
68
name a specific device type
24%
fallback entries: Other and Accessories
The Ophthalmic Devices branch runs 5 levels deep. 25 entries below are branch headings that group other codes rather than naming a device, so a classification has to resolve all the way down to one of the 89 codes marked terminal.
20 terminal codes are “- Other” entries and 1 is an “- Accessories” entry, 24% of the branch. An “- Other” code is the residual slot for devices its siblings do not name, so it is worth ruling out every specific sibling before settling on one.
The largest sub-branch is Q0210 (Corrective Optical Devices), holding 26 of the 89 terminal codes.
Frequently asked questions
- Which Q02 codes can be used in a EUDAMED device record?
- 89 of the 114 codes listed under Q02 (Ophthalmic Devices) are terminal and can be selected. The other 25 are branch headings that cannot.
- How deep is the Q02 hierarchy?
- The Q02 branch runs 5 levels below the group code. Its largest sub-branch is Q0210 (Corrective Optical Devices), which holds 26 of the 89 terminal codes.
- How many Q02 codes are catch-all entries?
- 20 terminal codes under Q02 are "- Other" entries and 1 is an "- Accessories" entry, 24% of the branch. The remaining 68 name a specific device type.
