This damage is often caused by abnormally high pressure in the eye. Per the ICD-10-CM Official Guidelines for Coding and Reporting, assign as many codes from category H40. - (glaucoma) as needed to identify the type of glaucoma, the affected eye, and the glaucoma stage.
When a patient has bilateral glaucoma and each eye is documented as having a different type, and the classification does not distinguish laterality (i.e., subcategories H40. 10, and H40. 20), assign one code for each type of glaucoma with the appropriate seventh character for the stage.
Open-angle glaucoma is the most common form of the disease. The drainage angle formed by the cornea and iris remains open, but the trabecular meshwork is partially blocked. This causes pressure in the eye to gradually increase. This pressure damages the optic nerve.
Primary open-angle glaucoma ICD-10-CM H40. 1111 is grouped within Diagnostic Related Group(s) (MS-DRG v39.0):
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.
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.
POAG is chronic, progressive, and occurs in both eyes, although one eye may have severe disease, and the other eye has very little or early disease. This is one of the reasons patients report no symptoms since the “good” eye can often compensate for the “bad” eye until the disease reaches very advanced stages.
ICD-10 Code for Primary open-angle glaucoma, right eye, mild stage- H40. 1111- Codify by AAPC.
Neovascular glaucoma is a type of secondary glaucoma where the angle of the eye is closed by “new blood vessels,” hence the name “neovascular.” The “angle” referred to here is the angle between the iris, which makes up the colored part of your eye, and the cornea, which is the clear-window front part of your eye.
Residual angle closure was defined as the inability to see the posterior trabecular meshwork for at least 2 quadrants on gonioscopy after LPI. Multivariate regression analysis determined the baseline predictors of residual angle closure 1 year after LPI.

PreventionGet regular dilated eye examinations. Regular comprehensive eye exams can help detect glaucoma in its early stages, before significant damage occurs. ... Know your family's eye health history. Glaucoma tends to run in families. ... Exercise safely. ... Take prescribed eyedrops regularly. ... Wear eye protection.
