What is lattice retinal degeneration?

Lattice degeneration is a common peripheral retinal degeneration that is characterized by localized retinal thinning, overlying vitreous liquefaction, and marginal vitreoretinal adhesion. The condition is associated with atrophic retinal holes, retinal tears, and retinal detachments.

Where is lattice degeneration?

What Is Lattice Degeneration? Lattice degeneration is a condition that affects the retina, which is the tissue at the back of the eye essential for clear and proper vision. Lattice degeneration affects the peripheral portions of the retina, resulting in the tissue developing a lattice pattern.

What causes lattice degeneration of the retina?

Ehlers-Danlos: A genetic connective tissue disease where joints are hyper-extendable and skin is abnormally elastic. This disease is associated with an increased risk of lattice degeneration and retinal detachment. Fundus: The back of the eye where the retina, macula, vitreous, choroid, and optic nerve are located.

What is the treatment for lattice degeneration?

Lattice degeneration is typically treated with laser to strengthen the retina in areas where it is weak. Side effects are reasonably uncommon, but the risk of side effects increases with the amount of lattice and treatment required. Possible side effects include an increase in pupil size in the treated eye.

Can lattice degeneration lead to macular degeneration?

When lattice degeneration is present, the retina is more vulnerable to developing tears, breaks, or holes that could ultimately lead to a visually debilitating condition called a retinal detachment. For this reason, once diagnosed lattice degeneration should be closely monitored.

What is lattice in ophthalmology?

Lattice degeneration is a thinning of the retina that happens over time. About 10 percent of people (1 in 10) have lattice degeneration. You need a healthy retina to see clearly, but most with this condition never have any symptoms or a loss in vision. Rarely, lattice degeneration can lead to retinal detachment.

Can lattice degeneration cause blindness?

What are symptoms of lattice degeneration? Lattice degeneration does not have any symptoms. But because the retina is thinner with lattice degeneration, it may tear, break, or get holes easier. This can lead to retinal detachment, which can cause blindness without treatment.

Can you have cataract surgery with lattice degeneration?

When a patient with lattice degeneration is considered for cataract surgery, one management option includes prophylactic treatment. Given the low incidence of retinal detachment, it is unnecessary to treat all patients with lattice degeneration prophylactically.

At what age does lattice degeneration start?

Lattice patients with low to moderate degrees of myopia tend to develop detachments between 40 and 60 years of age caused by premature posterior vitreous separation and tractional tears.

The ICD code H35 is used to code Retinopathy

Retinopathy is persistent or acute damage to the retina of the eye. Ongoing inflammation and vascular remodeling may occur over periods of time where the patient is not fully aware of the extent of the disease. Frequently, retinopathy is an ocular manifestation of systemic disease as seen in diabetes or hypertension.

Equivalent ICD-9 Code GENERAL EQUIVALENCE MAPPINGS (GEM)

This is the official approximate match mapping between ICD9 and ICD10, as provided by the General Equivalency mapping crosswalk. This means that while there is no exact mapping between this ICD10 code H35.412 and a single ICD9 code, 362.63 is an approximate match for comparison and conversion purposes.
