CASE 3 – RHEGMATOGENOUS RETINAL DETACHMENT What ICD-10 code(s) should be used There are two pertinent diagnosis codes: H33. 012 (RD, single defect, left eye) and Z98. 89 (Other specified post-procedural state).
67105: Repair of a retinal detachment, including drainage of subretinal fluid when performed; photocoagulation.
Retinal detachment describes an emergency situation in which a critical layer of tissue (the retina) at the back of the eye pulls away from the layer of blood vessels that provides it with oxygen and nutrients. Retinal detachment is often accompanied by flashes and floaters in your vision.
Rhegmatogenous retinal detachment is the most common type of retinal detachment. It can happen if you have a small tear or break in your retina. When your retina has a tear or break, the gel-like fluid in the center of your eye (called vitreous) can get behind your retina.
Exudative (serous) retinal detachment is rare. It happens when fluid collects under your retina, but there's no tear. It can affect both eyes. This type of detachment is often comes from an eye injury or as a complication of a wide range of diseases.
Tips: The epiretinal membrane peeling (CPT code 67041) is no longer billed since it is bundled mutually exclusively with CPT code 67040. Complex cataract code is used in cases in which the surgery is complex and not for complications encountered during cataract surgery.
The correct CPT code is 67220. Had the laser procedure been per- formed after a pneumatic retinopexy to repair an RD, the correct code would have been 67105. The decision tree in Figure 3 indicates the correct CPT codes for retinal laser based on the specific diagnosis leading to the treatment.
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.
Retinal detachment refers to the full lack of attachment of the retinal tissue along the back of the eye. This is more severe than retinal tears. The longer that a detached retina remains detached, the greater the risk of permanent vision loss.
Background. Although uncommon, retinal detachments are medically urgent and can result in permanent vision loss if untreated. Bilateral retinal detachments in healthy individuals are even more rare.
The main difference between a vitreous detachment and retinal detachment is the damage done to the retina. On its own, PVD does not harm vision. As long as the fibers are merely pulling on the retina, the quality of your eyesight should not be affected.
Retinal detachment (also known as amotio retinae) is a disorder of the eye in which the retina peels away from its underlying layer of support tissue. Initial detachment may be localized or broad, but without rapid treatment the entire retina may detach, leading to vision loss and blindness. It is almost always classified as a medical emergency. Permanent damage may occur if the detachment is not repaired within 24–72 hours.
This means that while there is no exact mapping between this ICD10 code H33.011 and a single ICD9 code, 361.01 is an approximate match for comparison and conversion purposes.
