Homonymous bilateral field defects, right side. H53.461 is a billable/specific ICD-10-CM code that can be used to indicate a diagnosis for reimbursement purposes. The 2019 edition of ICD-10-CM H53.461 became effective on October 1, 2018.
2022 ICD-10-CM Diagnosis Code H53.46 H53.46 should not be used for reimbursement purposes as there are multiple codes below it that contain a greater level of detail. The 2022 edition of ICD-10-CM H53.46 became effective on October 1, 2021.
Bitemporal hemianopsia (aka bitemporal heteronymous hemianopsia or bitemporal hemianopia) is the medical description of a type of partial blindness where vision is missing in the outer half of both the right and left visual field.
Homonymous hemianopsia is a condition in which a person sees only one side ― right or left ― of the visual world of each eye. The condition results from a problem in brain function rather than a disorder of the eyes themselves.
Homonymous hemianopsia can be congenital, but is usually caused by brain injury such as from stroke, trauma, tumors, infection, or following surgery. Vascular and neoplastic (malignant or benign tumours) lesions from the optic tract, to visual cortex can cause a contralateral homonymous hemianopsia.
INTRODUCTION. Homonymous hemianopia is a visual field defect involving either the two right or the two left halves of the visual fields of both eyes.
ICD-10-CM Code for Visual field defects H53. 4.
The most common location of lesions resulting in HH is the occipital lobe (45%), followed by damage to the optic radiations (32%). The remainder is caused by lesions of the optic tract (10%), lateral geniculate nucleus (LGN) (1.3%), or a combination of several areas (11%).
[1] HH can also be characterized as contralateral hemianopsia (unilateral involvement at the optic tract, lateral geniculate nucleus, optic radiations, or occipital cortex opposite to the side of field loss) in contrast to bitemporal hemianopsia (involvement at the optic chiasm).
Hemianopia, sometimes called hemianopsia, is partial blindness or a loss of sight in half of your visual field.
3 Homonymous hemianopia is a loss of the right or left halves of the visual field of both eyes (Figure 1a, 1b) and usually occurs as a result of a middle cerebral or posterior cerebral artery stroke affecting either the optic radiation or visual cortex of the occipital lobe (Figure 2).
The difference between partial hemianopia and complete hemianopia is how much of a patient's visual field is affected. Partial hemianopia means the patient has no visual stimulus in one quadrant of the visual field. Complete hemianopia describes having no visual stimulus in half of their visual field.
ICD-10-CM Code for Visual disturbances H53.
Short Description or Definition. A visual field deficit refers to diminished or absent vision in circumscribed parts of the visual field.
Peripheral vision loss (PVL), or tunnel vision, is the loss of your peripheral sight. Someone with PVL can see what is right in front of them, but they may have gaps in their side vision. Another word for PVL is tunnel vision because you may feel as if you're in a narrow tunnel.
Bitemporal hemianopsia (aka bitemporal heteronymous hemianopsia or bitemporal hemianopia) is the medical description of a type of partial blindness where vision is missing in the outer half of both the right and left visual field. It is usually associated with lesions of the optic chiasm, the area where the optic nerves from the right and left eyes cross near the pituitary gland.

Bitemporal hemianopsia (aka bitemporal heteronymous hemianopsia or bitemporal hemianopia) is the medical description of a type of partial blindness where vision is missing in the outer half of both the right and left visual field. It is usually associated with lesions of the optic chiasm, the area where the optic nerves from the right and left eyes cross near the pituitary gland.
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 H53.469 and a single ICD9 code, 368.46 is an approximate match for comparison and conversion purposes.
