A condition in which there is a build-up of fluid in the eye, which presses on the retina and the optic nerve.
When a patient has bilateral glaucoma and both eyes are documented as being the same type and stage, and there is a code for bilateral glaucoma, report only the type for the type of glaucoma, bilateral, with the seventh character for the stage.
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.
ICD-10 code H40. 112 for Primary open-angle glaucoma, left eye is a medical classification as listed by WHO under the range - Diseases of the eye and adnexa .
An eye that has lost all vision and has uncontrolled pressure is sometimes referred to as having “absolute glaucoma”. In such situations, the mechanism of underlying pressure elevation may be apparent (e.g., neovascular or uveitic glaucoma), whereas in other cases, it may not.
ICD-10-CM Code for Primary open-angle glaucoma, right eye, moderate stage H40. 1112.
Although there are many types of glaucoma, ophthalmologists typically group them into two main categories: open-angle glaucoma and angle-closure glaucoma. Forms of glaucoma in both categories are characterized by damage to the optic nerve which can eventually lead to blindness.
There are four major types of glaucoma: Open-angle glaucoma. Angle-closure glaucoma, also called closed-angle glaucoma. Congenital glaucoma.

early treatment can help protect your eyes against vision loss. Treatments usually include prescription eyedrops and/or surgery. nih: national eye institute. Group of diseases characterized by increased intraocular pressure resulting in damage to the optic nerve and retinal nerve fibers.
