A pinguecula is a raised yellowish white growth next to, but not overlapping, the cornea. This growth can be unsightly, but it typically does not cause any significant problems and does not need to be removed. A pterygium is a fleshy growth of the conjunctiva that spreads across onto the cornea.
A pinguecula is a small, raised, white- or yellow-colored growth that is limited to the conjunctiva; it can occur on the inner or outer side of the eye. A pinguecula may contain deposits of protein, fat or calcium.
Pinguecula is a harmless yellowish raised growth on the white part of your eye. It's thought to be caused by exposure to sun, wind and dust. Besides the bump, other common symptoms include eye redness, irritation and dry eye. Medications can relieve discomfort if needed.
A pterygium is a growth of tissue in the corner of the eye, which is often triangular in shape. If left untreated, the growth can extend across the pupil obscuring vision or distorting the surface of the eye causing blurred vision.
Pterygium surgery involves removal of the abnormal tissue from the sclera and cornea of the eye. Today's techniques offer a significantly higher success rate than conventional surgery. In traditional “bare sclera” pterygium removal, the underlying white of the eye is left exposed.
What is a pterygium? A pterygium is a fleshy overgrowth of the conjunctiva, which is the thin clear membrane on the surface of the eye. About one in every 100 Australians develops a pterygium (the plural for pterygium is pterygia). In most cases, a pterygium grows from the inner corner of the eye (nearest the nose).
Pterygium is an eye condition that affects people who spend a great deal of time outdoors. It involves the growth of pink, fleshy tissue on the conjunctiva (white part of the eye), usually on the side toward the nose. The cause of pterygium is excessive exposure to ultraviolet light, dust, wind, sand, and humidity.

Pterygium of eye. H11.0 should not be used for reimbursement purposes as there are multiple codes below it that contain a greater level of detail. The 2021 edition of ICD-10-CM H11.0 became effective on October 1, 2020.
The ICD code H110 is used to code Pterygium (conjunctiva) Pterygium (Surfer's Eye) most often refers to a benign growth of the conjunctiva. A pterygium commonly grows from the nasal side of the conjunctiva. It is usually present in the palpebral fissure.
Use a child code to capture more detail. ICD Code H11.0 is a non-billable code.
Sunlight passes unobstructed from the lateral side of the eye, focusing on the medial limbus after passing through the cornea. On the contralateral (medial) side, however, the shadow of the nose medially reduces the intensity of sunlight focused on the lateral/temporal limbus. Specialty: Ophthalmology. MeSH Code:
A pterygium commonly grows from the nasal side of the conjunctiva. It is usually present in the palpebral fissure. It is associated with and thought to be caused by ultraviolet-light exposure (e.g., sunlight), low humidity, and dust.
This means that while there is no exact mapping between this ICD10 code H11.001 and a single ICD9 code, 372.40 is an approximate match for comparison and conversion purposes.
