Glaucoma H40- >. ICD-10-CM Diagnosis Code P15.3 A condition in which there is a build-up of fluid in the eye, which presses on the retina and the optic nerve. The retina is the layer of nerve tissue inside the eye that senses light and sends images along the optic nerve to the brain. Glaucoma can damage the optic nerve and cause loss...

5 Glaucoma secondary to other eye disorders.
This condition occurs suddenly when fluid builds up behind the iris. This buildup of fluid causes a sudden, dangerous increase in intraocular pressure. It is also called acute angle-closure glaucoma or closed-angle glaucoma.
Narrow-Angle Glaucoma (also called Closed-Angle Glaucoma) Narrow-angle glaucoma is much more rare and is very different from open-angle glaucoma in that eye pressure usually goes up very fast. This happens when the drainage canals get blocked or covered over.
Coding for Glaucoma. Glaucoma (ICD-9-CM category 365) is a group of conditions resulting in optic nerve damage caused by increased intraocular pressure. It can cause a gradual progression of vision loss if left untreated.
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.

The ICD code H40 is used to code Glaucoma. Glaucoma is a group of eye diseases which result in damage to the optic nerve and vision loss. A major risk factor is increased pressure in the eye. The disorders can be roughly divided into two main categories: "open-angle" and "closed-angle" (or "angle closure") glaucoma.
Open-angle chronic glaucoma is painless, tends to develop slowly over time and often has no symptoms until the disease has progressed significantly. Closed angle glaucoma is usually chronic and asymptomatic but can present all of a sudden as well.
Glaucoma can permanently damage vision in the affected eye, first by decreasing peripheral vision (reducing the visual field), and then potentially leading to blindness if left untreated. Acute angle closure glaucoma of the right eye.
