Tabular List Chapter 7 Categories (Slightly different list than in very first webinar- Official USA Version for ICD-10-CM)
Chapter 7 Diseases of the eye and adnexa (H00-H59) Overall Notes and Exclusions Note: Use an external cause code following the code for the eye
condition, if applicable, to identify the cause of the eye condition
Excludes2: Certain conditions originating in the perinatal period (P04-P96) Certain infectious and parasitic diseases (A00-B99) Complications of pregnancy, childbirth and the puerperium (O00-O9A) Congenital malformations, deformations, and chromosomal abnormalities (Q00-Q99) Diabetes mellitus related eye conditions (E09.3-, E10.3-, E11.3-, E13.3-) Endocrine, nutritional and metabolic diseases (E00-E88) Injury (trauma) of eye and orbit (S05.-) Injury, poisoning and certain other consequences of external causes (S00-T88) Neoplasms (C00-D49) Symptoms, signs and abnormal clinical and laboratory findings, not elsewhere classified
(R00-R94) Syphilis related eye disorders (A50.01, A50.3-, A51.43, A52.71)
Definition Reminder • Excludes1: Excludes 1 note is pure excludes note- meaning “NOT CODED HERE!” Code excluded should never be used at same time as code above Excludes1
note Excludes1 used when two conditions cannot occur together (Example: congenital versus acquired form of same condition)
• Excludes2 Excludes2 note means “Not included here” Excluded condition is not part of condition represented by code BUT patient may have both conditions at the same time Excludes2 used when it is acceptable to use both code and excluded code
together, when applicable
Coding Guidelines for Glaucoma 1. Assigning Glaucoma Codes Assign as many codes from category H40, Glaucoma, necessary to identify a) type of glaucoma b) affected eye c) glaucoma stage
2. Bilateral glaucoma with same type and stage If code for bilateral glaucoma, report only bilateral code, with seventh
character for stage If no code for bilateral glaucoma, report only one code for type of glaucoma
with seventh character for stage
Coding Guidelines for Glaucoma 3. Bilateral glaucoma stage with different types or stages a) Each eye different type or stage, and the classification distinguishes
laterality= one code for each eye
b) Each eye different type, but classification does not distinguish laterality = one code for each type of glaucoma with seventh character for stage (subcategories H40.10, H40.11 and H40.20)
c) Each eye has same type, but different stage, and classification does not distinguish laterality =one code for type ,each eye plus seventh character for stage, each eye (subcategories H40.10, H40.11 and H40.20)
Coding Guidelines for Glaucoma 4. Indeterminate stage glaucoma
Assignment seventh character “4” for “indeterminate stage” based on clinical documentation
Seventh character “4” is used for glaucoma when stage cannot be clinically determined
This seventh character “0”, unspecified, which should be assigned when no documentation regarding stage of glaucoma
Glaucoma Alphabetical Index Long listing for different glaucoma: Glaucoma H40.9 - with - - increased episcleral venous pressure H40.81- - - pseudoexfoliation of lens —see Glaucoma, open angle, primary, capsular - absolute H44.51- - angle-closure (primary) H40.20- - - acute (attack) (crisis) H40.21- - - chronic H40.22- - - intermittent H40.23- - - residual stage H40.24- - borderline H40.00- - capsular (with pseudoexfoliation of lens) —see Glaucoma, open angle, primary, capsular - childhood Q15.0 - closed angle —see Glaucoma, angle-closure - congenital Q15.0 - corticosteroid-induced —see Glaucoma, secondary, drugs - hypersecretion H40.82-
Be careful to choose the RIGHT type of glaucoma from Alphabetical Index
Note that MOST are in the H40-H44 code range

Note some glaucoma codes are under sections other than the H 40- H44 code range
Note the codes in Brackets [ ]
Glaucoma Alphabetical Index
- open angle H40.10- - - primary H40.11- - - - capsular (with pseudoexfoliation of lens) H40.14- - - - low-tension H40.12- - - - pigmentary H40.13- - - - residual stage H40.15- - phacolytic —see Glaucoma, secondary - pigmentary —see Glaucoma, open angle, primary,

H40.10 and H40.11 probably most common codes used in most practices
Glaucoma Tabular Listing Coding Notes H40
Cannot code with H40 code series
These codes MUST be used with other
codes
Glaucoma Tabular Listing
The DREADED 7th Character!!
These two are NOT per eye!
All MUST have 7th Character
The other four codes ARE per eye!
Complete listing not shown here!
Primary Open Angle Glaucoma Example Alphabetical Index Glaucoma: - open angle H40.10- - - primary H40.11- - - - capsular (with pseudoexfoliation of lens) H40.14- - - - low-tension H40.12- - - - pigmentary H40.13- - - residual stage H40.15-
Must go to section H40.11- in Tabular Listing
Primary Open Angle Glaucoma, both eyes mild OD, severe OS
Primary Open Angle Glaucoma Example
Primary Open Angle Glaucoma, both eyes mild OD, severe OS
Tabular Listing H40.11- This code is NOT per eye!!
Bilateral glaucoma →each eye has same type, but different stage, and classification does not distinguish laterality → one code for type of glaucoma for each eye plus seventh character for specific glaucoma stage documented
for each eye (subcategories H40.10, H40.11 and H40.20)
Final Codes-must have BOTH codes AND -”x” placeholder H40.11x1 H40.11x3
Low-Tension Glaucoma Example Alphabetical Index: Glaucoma: - low tension —see Glaucoma, open angle, primary, low-tension - - primary H40.11- - - - capsular (with pseudoexfoliation of lens) H40.14- - - - low-tension H40.12- - - - pigmentary H40.13- - - residual stage H40.15-
LOOK UNDER OPEN ANGLE,PRIMARY,LOW TENSION
Must go to section H40.12- in Tabular Listing
Low Tension Glaucoma, both eyes, moderate stage
Low-Tension Glaucoma Example
Tabular Listing 40.12- This code IS per eye!!
Low Tension Glaucoma, both eyes, moderate stage
7th required ►H40.1232 This one already has 6 places
so no “x” necessary
Glaucoma due to inflammation, left eye, mild From Chronic Iritis
Alphabetical Index: Glaucoma - in (due to) . . . - - eye - - - inflammation —see Glaucoma, secondary, inflammation . . . - secondary (to) H40.5- - - drugs H40.6- - - inflammation H40.4- - - trauma H40.3-
Under eye inflammation…
Under secondary, find inflammation
Must go to section H40.4-
Glaucoma due to inflammation, left eye, mild From Chronic Iritis
IMPORTANT NOTE!!
Glaucoma code H40.42x1
Must also find the underlying inflammation that is causing glaucoma
Glaucoma due to inflammation, left eye, mild From Chronic Iritis
Iritis —see also Iridocyclitis
Iridocyclitis H20.9 - acute H20.0- - - hypopyon H20.05- - - primary H20.01- - - recurrent H20.02- - - secondary (noninfectious) H20.04- - - - infectious H20.03- - chronic H20.1-
So, back to Alphabetic index for Iritis
Iritis sends us to Iridocyclitis
Here is the code section we need to view
Glaucoma due to inflammation, left eye, mild From Chronic Iritis
You would code also H20.12 for this case BUT which is first- glaucoma or iritis?
Glaucoma due to inflammation, left eye, mild From Chronic Iritis “Code also note” “code also” note instructs that two codes may be required to fully
describe a condition, but this note does not provide sequencing direction
BUT ICD-10-CM Guidelines state: “Wherever … there is a “use additional code” note at the etiology code,
and a “code first” note at the manifestation code. These instructional notes indicate the proper sequencing order of the codes, etiology followed by manifestation. “
Further stated: “ There are manifestation codes that do not have “in diseases classified elsewhere” in the title. For such codes, there is a “use additional code” note at the etiology code and a “code first” note at the manifestation code and the rules for sequencing apply.”
Code Iritis first followed by glaucoma
H20.12 and H40.42x1
Disorders of Optic Nerve and Visual Pathways H46-H47 Excludes
This section has many Code first or code also codes
Retrobulbar Optic Neuritis Left Eye Example
Alphabetic Index Optic nerve —see condition Neuritis (rheumatoid) M79.2 . . . - optic (nerve) (hereditary) (sympathetic) H46.9 - - with demyelination G36.0 - - in myelitis G36.0 - - nutritional H46.2 - - papillitis —see Papillitis, optic - - retrobulbar H46.1- - - specified type NEC H46.8 - - toxic H46.3
Not under optic nerve
Find Retrobulbar under neuritis and then under optic nerve Must go to section H46.1-
Retrobulbar Optic Neuritis Left Eye Example
Final code is H46.12
Just when thought this example would be complex, it is not!!
Retrobulbar Optic Neuritis Left Eye Example Neuritis (rheumatoid) M79.2 . . . - optic (nerve) (hereditary) (sympathetic) H46.9 - - with demyelination G36.0 - - in myelitis G36.0 - - nutritional H46.2 - - papillitis —see Papillitis, optic - - retrobulbar H46.1-
But what if we had KNOWN it was demyelination of optic nerve??
Code would be G36.0
Optic Chiasm Field Defect-pituitary tumor Example
Alphabetical Index Vision, visual
. . . - defect, defective NEC H54.7 - disorientation (syndrome) H53.8 - disturbance H53.9 - - hysterical F44.6 - double H53.2 - examination Z01.00 - - with abnormal findings Z01.01 - field, limitation (defect) —see Defect,
visual field
Defect, defective Q89.9 - 3-beta-hydroxysteroid dehydrogenase
E25.0 . . . - visual field H53.40 - - bilateral - - - heteronymous H53.47 - - - homonymous H53.46- - - generalized contraction H53.48- - - localized - - - arcuate H53.43- - - - scotoma (central area) H53.41- - - - - blind spot area H53.42- - - - sector H53.43- - - - specified type NEC H53.45- Have to go to “Defect”
Still not the correct choice when review H53.4- section-does not describe chiasm defect
Optic Chiasm Visual Field Defect-pituitary tumor Example
Under disorder find the choice that might work
Disorder (of) —see also Disease . . . - optic - - chiasm H47.49 - - - due to - - - - inflammatory disorder H47.41 - - - - neoplasm H47.42 - - - - vascular disorder H47.43
Code would be H47.42 and underlying condition
Optic Chiasm Visual Field Defect-pituitary tumor Example
“Code also note” A “code also” note instructs that two codes may be required to fully
describe a condition, but this note does not provide sequencing direction.
Pituitary gland —see condition Tumor —see also Neoplasm, unspecified behavior, by site Neoplasm, neoplastic —see also Table of Neoplasms - pituitary(body) (fossa) (gland) (lobe)
MalignantPrimary C75.1 MalignantSecondary C79.89 Ca in situ D09.3 Benign D35.2 UncertainBehaviorD44.3 UnspecifiedBehavior D49.7
Your final code choice would depend on the type of pituitary tumor, if known
Optic Chiasm Visual Field Defect-pituitary tumor Example
If malignant pituitary tumor with optic chiasm
defect final code choice would be: C75.1 and H47.42
Optic Chiasm Visual Field Defect-pituitary tumor Example
If benign pituitary tumor with optic chiasm defect final code choice would be:
D35.2 and H47.42
Summary • Alphabetic Index FIRST unless you are quite certain of your code
choices • Watch for [ ] , code first , code also notes in alphabetical index • Look up specific code in Tabular Listing based on where Alphabetical
Index leads you. • Watch for ALL Excludes1 and Excludes2 notes • Watch for all Code First and Code Also notes • Ensure you are coding to the most specific level possible • DO NOT GUESS if you do not know because: JUST WHEN YOU THINK YOU HAVE IT, THE RULES CHANGED FOR
THAT SPECIFIC SITUATION!!
