Primary open angle glaucoma (POAG) is a subset of the glaucomas defined by an open, normal appearing anterior chamber angle and raised intraocular pressure (IOP), with no other underlying disease. If there is an identifiable underlying cause for raised IOP, this is termed secondary glaucoma.
Moderate stage glaucoma is noted with a “2” as the final digit in the diagnosis code. As in the example above, moderate stage open angle glaucoma with borderline findings and low risk the ICD-10 code would be H40. 011X2 for the right eye and H40. 012X2 for the left eye.

Diagnosis is by ophthalmoscopy, gonioscopy, visual field examination, and measurement of central corneal thickness and IOP. Treatment includes topical drugs (eg, prostaglandin analogs, beta-blockers) and often requires laser or incisional surgery to increase aqueous drainage.

The AAO and American Glaucoma Society defines mild or early stage glaucoma as demonstrating the optic nerve abnormalities associated with glaucoma, but no current impact on the visual field. Only patients without visual abnormalities or with “abnormalities present only on short-wavelength automated perimetry or frequency doubling perimetry” would qualify as having mild or early stage glaucoma.
When designating the glaucoma stage, the most advanced eye stage should be used for both eyes. That is, if a patient has moderate stage glaucoma in the right eye and early stage glaucoma in the left, both eyes should be coded as stage 2. For assistance in converting ICD-9 codes to ICD-10, this site allows you to look up ...
Indeterminate Stage. For various reasons, there are some cases when the glaucoma stage either has not yet been determined or cannot be determined. For patients who are incapable of completing a visual field test, those who have not yet had time to complete a visual field test or those whose visual field was unreliable, ...
Adjusting to the ICD-10 is a challenge for any medical billing office, but one requirement that optometrists and ophthalmologists is particularly important: a glaucoma diagnosis is not simply a glaucoma diagnosis.
