H35.52ICD-10-CM Code for Pigmentary retinal dystrophy H35. 52.
Retinitis pigmentosa: It is the most commonly seen retinal dystrophy. RP is a progressive rod-cone disease with rods affected first and has a high level of clinical and genetic heterogeneity. The age of presentation and the prognosis depends on the type of inheritance.
ICD-10-CM Code for Visual disturbances H53.
H35. 723 - Serous detachment of retinal pigment epithelium, bilateral. ICD-10-CM.
The retinal tissue that becomes atrophied may be due to any one of many rare disorders, however retinitis pigmentosa is the most common type. The cause of retinal atrophy is often because of defective genes.
Macular retinal dystrophy is a rare genetic eye disorder that causes vision loss. Macular retinal dystrophy affects the back of your eye, or retina. It leads to cell damage in an area called the macula, which controls how you see what's out in front of you. When it happens, you have trouble seeing straight ahead.
8: Other visual disturbances.
1 Severe visual impairment, binocular. Visual impairment category 2.
ICD-10 code H53. 8 for Other visual disturbances is a medical classification as listed by WHO under the range - Diseases of the eye and adnexa .
Retinal pigment epithelial detachment is defined as a separation of the retinal pigment epithelium from the inner collagenous layer of Bruch's membrane. It is a common manifestation in both dry and wet types of age-related macular degeneration.
H33.059Total retinal detachment, unspecified eye H33. 059 is a billable/specific ICD-10-CM code that can be used to indicate a diagnosis for reimbursement purposes. The 2022 edition of ICD-10-CM H33. 059 became effective on October 1, 2021.
Pigment epithelial detachments can occur idiopathically or in association with AMD, central serous chorioretinopathy (CSC), angioid streaks, presumed ocular histoplasmosis syndrome (POHS), or hereditary chorioretinal degenerations.
Retinal dystrophies (RDs) are degenerative diseases of the retina which have marked clinical and genetic heterogeneity. Common presentations among these disorders include night or colour blindness, tunnel vision and subsequent progression to complete blindness.
What causes RP? Most of the time, RP is caused by changes in genes that control cells in the retina. These changed genes are passed down from parents to children. RP is linked to many different genes and can be inherited in different ways.
Treatment. Currently, there is no treatment available for retinal dystrophies. The different clinical trials point to the fact that both gene therapy and cell therapy may play a therapeutic role in the future.
Both eyes often experience similar vision loss. It should be noted that RP is a slowly progressive disease over many years and that most patients never become completely blind.

Why use a diagnosis code in the absence of an approved therapy? Accurate documentation and coding will help researchers and policymakers track the visual impairment and visual function deficits that are associated with the condition. Furthermore, when treatments do become available, you will be ready to code for them.
The codes for wet AMD—H35.32xx—use the sixth character to indicate laterality and the seventh character to indicate staging as follows:
H35.31x3 for advanced atrophic dry AMD without subfoveal involvement —geographic atrophy (GA) not involving the center of the fovea.
The phenotype of central geographic atrophy, the advanced form of non-neovascular AMD, will have 1 or more zones of well- demarcated RPE and/or choriocapillaris atrophy. Drusen and other pigmentary abnormalities may surround the atrophic areas.
The Academy recommends that when coding, you indicate whether the GA involves the center of the fovea: Code H35.31x4 if it does and H35.31x3 if it doesn’t, with “x” indicating lateral ity. Improved categorization of GA will help in clinical practice and also will lead to a better understanding of the natural history, comorbidities, and visual prognosis associated with the disease.
Prognosis. The risk of vision loss is higher with the involvement of the macula ; however, there can be difficulties with visual function in patients with GA without subfoveal involvement. The Academy Basic and Clinical Science Course3 notes the following regarding prognosis of patients with GA:
Stargardt disease, or fundus flavimaculatus, is an inherited form of juvenile macular degeneration that causes progressive vision loss usually to the point of legal blindness. Several genes are associated with the disorder.

This is the official exact match mapping between ICD9 and ICD10, as provided by the General Equivalency mapping crosswalk. This means that in all cases where the ICD9 code 362.74 was previously used, H35.52 is the appropriate modern ICD10 code.
In comparison, atypical CHRPE lesions associated with FAP show RPE hypertrophy and hyperplasia, retinal invasion and retinal vascular changes. These lesions may be multi-layered or involve the full thickness of the retina.
CHRPE is usually an incidental finding made on routine ophthalmological examination. The identification of multiple or bilateral lesions should alert the clinician to the possibility of underlying FAP.
Optical coherence tomography findings include retinal thinning and photoreceptor loss over lesions, with absence of RPE and increased transmission of light in areas of lacunae.
Most solitary and grouped CHRPE lesions are characterized by a monocellular layer of hypertrophied RPE cells, densely packed with large, round macromelanosomes. The underlying Bruch’s membrane may be thickened and the overlying photoreceptor layer degenerates with increasing age. The choroid, choriocapillaris and inner retinal layers are unaffected. Glial cells replace the RPE and photoreceptor layer in areas of depigmented lacunae.

Multiple lesions arranged in a cluster constitute grouped CHRPE. Each cluster may include up to 30 lesions , which may vary from 100-300 μm in size, and are usually confined to one sector or quadrant of the fundus. Lesions tend to increase in size towards the fundus periphery; lack haloes and lacunae; and have been termed “bear tracks” due to their resemblance to animal footprints.
Almost exclusively asymptomatic. A subset of patients may be known with FAP.
The first sign of retinitis pigmentosa is usually a loss of night vision, which becomes apparent in childhood. Problems with night vision can make it difficult to navigate in low light. Later, the disease causes blind spots to develop in the side (peripheral) vision. Over time, these blind spots merge to produce tunnel vision. The disease progresses over years or decades to affect central vision, which is needed for detailed tasks such as reading, driving, and recognizing faces. In adulthood, many people with retinitis pigmentosa become legally blind.
Retinal detachment - a medical emergency, when the retina is pulled away from the back of the eye. Retinoblastoma - cancer of the retina. It is most common in young children. Macular pucker - scar tissue on the macula. Macular hole - a small break in the macula that usually happens to people over 60.
There are more than 30 types of cone-rod dystrophy, which are distinguished by their genetic cause and their pattern of inheritance: autosomal recessive, autosomal dominant, and X-linked. Additionally, cone-rod dystrophy can occur alone without any other signs and symptoms or it can occur as part of a syndrome that affects multiple parts of the body.
Cone-rod dystrophy is a group of related eye disorders that causes vision loss, which becomes more severe over time. These disorders affect the retina, which is the layer of light-sensitive tissue at the back of the eye. In people with cone-rod dystrophy, vision loss occurs as the light-sensing cells of the retina gradually deteriorate.
In people with cone-rod dystrophy, vision loss occurs as the light-sensing cells of the retina gradually deteriorate.The first signs and symptoms of cone-rod dystrophy, which often occur in childhood, are usually decreased sharpness of vision (visual acuity) and increased sensitivity to light (photophobia).
Retinal vein occlusion (Medical Encyclopedia) Cone-rod dystrophy Cone-rod dystrophy is a group of related eye disorders that causes vision loss, which becomes more severe over time. These disorders affect the retina, which is the layer of light-sensitive tissue at the back of the eye.
The flecks are especially abundant near the outer edge (the periphery) of the retina. Their density varies among affected individuals; some people have numerous flecks that overlap, while others have fewer. For unknown reasons, the flecks get smaller or fade with age in some affected individuals, although night vision does not improve.
