When you use the codes for dry AMD (H35.31xx) and wet AMD (H35.32xx), you must use the sixth character to indicate laterality as follows: 1 for the right eye. 2 for the left eye. 3 for bilateral. Tip. If the same disease stage is present in both eyes, use the bilateral designation (3) regardless of whether 1 or both eyes are being treated.

H35.3030.
A condition in which parts of the eye cells degenerate, resulting in blurred vision and ultimately blindness. A condition in which there is a slow breakdown of cells in the center of the retina (the light-sensitive layers of nerve tissue at the back of the eye).
Age-related macular degeneration is usually bilateral (i.e., occurs in both eyes), but does not necessarily progress at the same pace in both eyes. It is therefore possible to experience the wet type in one eye and the dry type in the other.

Age-related macular degeneration (AMD) is a bilateral disease and the incidence of neovascularisation (nAMD) in the fellow eye is about 20–42% in the first 2–3 years. Many patients have a very different visual acuity (VA) in the two eyes at the first visit.Jan 20, 2017
There are 2 types of AMD: dry and wet. Most people with AMD have dry AMD (also called atrophic AMD). This is when the macula gets thinner with age. Dry AMD happens in 3 stages: early, intermediate, and late.Jun 22, 2021
Late AMD mixed type was defined as CNV in one eye and GA in the other eye. In cases termed “unilateral”, the grading differed between both eyes. The classification was then based on the eye with the more severe AMD grading. (e.g. unilateral intermediate AMD could have no AMD or early AMD in the fellow-eye).Jun 3, 2016
Oculi uterque = both eyes. (“Oculus uterque” = “both eye”)
DEFINITION. The term choroidal degeneration refers to a group of disorders that present with acquired, usually progressive cellular or tissue dysfunction resulting eventually in cell death and consequent structural changes involving the choroid.
Neovascular AMD is an advanced form of macular degeneration that historically has accounted for the majority of vision loss related to AMD. The presence of choroidal neovascular membrane (CNV) formation is the hallmark feature of neovascular AMD.

Right macular degeneration. Clinical Information. A condition in which parts of the eye cells degenerate, resulting in blurred vision and ultimately blindness. A condition in which there is a slow breakdown of cells in the center of the retina (the light-sensitive layers of nerve tissue at the back of the eye).
injury (trauma) of eye and orbit ( S05.-) A condition in which parts of the eye cells degenerate, resulting in blurred vision and ultimately blindness. A condition in which there is a slow breakdown of cells in the center of the retina (the light-sensitive layers of nerve tissue at the back of the eye).
Age-related loss of vision in the central portion of the retina (macula), secondary to retinal degeneration. Degenerative changes in the retina usually of older adults which results in a loss of vision in the center of the visual field (the macula lutea) because of damage to the retina. It occurs in dry and wet forms.
