Melasma is a common, harmless skin problem that causes dark patches (hyperpigmentation) on your face. It's usually caused by sun exposure. When melasma appears in pregnant women, it's referred to as chloasma, or “the mask of pregnancy.” Chloasma is triggered by hormonal changes that occur during pregnancy.

Why use a diagnosis code in the absence of an approved therapy? Accurate documentation and coding will help researchers and policymakers track the visual impairment and visual function deficits that are associated with the condition. Furthermore, when treatments do become available, you will be ready to code for them.
The codes for wet AMD—H35.32xx—use the sixth character to indicate laterality and the seventh character to indicate staging as follows:
The Academy recommends that when coding, you indicate whether the GA involves the center of the fovea: Code H35.31x4 if it does and H35.31x3 if it doesn’t, with “x” indicating lateral ity. Improved categorization of GA will help in clinical practice and also will lead to a better understanding of the natural history, comorbidities, and visual prognosis associated with the disease.
Prognosis. The risk of vision loss is higher with the involvement of the macula ; however, there can be difficulties with visual function in patients with GA without subfoveal involvement. The Academy Basic and Clinical Science Course3 notes the following regarding prognosis of patients with GA:
