Pigmentary glaucoma is a type of secondary open-angle glaucoma characterized by heavy homogenous pigmentation of the trabecular meshwork, iris transillumination defects, and pigment along the corneal endothelium (Krukenberg spindle).
Posterior vitreous detachment (PVD) occurs when the gel that fills the eyeball separates from the retina. It's a natural, normal part of aging. PVD can cause floaters or flashes in your sight, which usually become less noticeable over time. The condition isn't painful, and it doesn't cause vision loss on its own.
Diagnostic testing Posterior vitreous detachment is usually diagnosed with a dilated eye examination. However, if the vitreous gel is very clear, it may be hard to see the PVD without additional testing, such as optical coherence tomography (OCT) or ocular ultrasound (see Figure 2).
Uneven pupil size, or anisocoria, may be a normal variation in a person's eyes or may indicate an underlying problem.
People with Axenfeld-Rieger syndrome often have a pupil that is off-center (corectopia) or extra holes in the iris that can look like multiple pupils (polycoria). This condition can also cause abnormalities of the cornea, which is the clear front covering of the eye.
Unequal pupil sizes of more than 1 mm that develop later in life and do not return to equal size may be a sign of an eye, brain, blood vessel, or nerve disease.
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.
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.
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.
The following crosswalk between ICD-10-PCS to ICD-9-PCS is based based on the General Equivalence Mappings (GEMS) information:
The ICD-10 Procedure Coding System (ICD-10-PCS) is a catalog of procedural codes used by medical professionals for hospital inpatient healthcare settings. The Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services (CMS) maintain the catalog in the U.S. releasing yearly updates.
Glaucoma is an eye condition that results in the optic nerve of the eye worsening with time. This condition is normally associated with increase in the buildup of pressure in the eye. H40.9 is the ICD code that has been designated for this eye condition.
Cataracts is a common eye condition that is known to be a major cause of blindness in many people. Cataract is the clouding of the lens inside the eye which normally results in reduced vision. H25.9 is an ICD 10 code that specifies unspecified age related cataract.
Low Vision is a term used to refer to a significant reduction of visual function that cannot be fully corrected by ordinary glasses, contact lenses or any sort of medical treatment. Level of vision codes will also be predominant in ICD10; the only change is that ICD-10 will feature 17 codes in this case as compared to 16 in ICD-9.
