Drance hemorrhages are disc hemorrhages that lie within the peripapillary retinal nerve fiber layer. During an 83-year-old woman's annual eye examination, peripapillary retinal hemorrhages were detected immediately adjacent to the optic nerve head inferotemporally in the left eye.

Non-arteritic anterior ischemic optic neuropathy (NAION) refers to loss of blood flow to the optic nerve (which is the cable that connects the eye to the brain). This condition typically causes sudden vision loss in one eye, without any pain.
As opposed to the more common non-arteritis variety (NAION), AAION accounts for 5-10% of anterior ischemic optic neuropathies (AION) and is caused by inflammation and subsequent thrombosis of the short posterior ciliary arteries (SPCA's), which originate from the ophthalmic artery, and results in optic nerve head ...
Optic nerve sheath hemorrhage is shown to result from rupture of dural and bridging vessels of the optic nerve sheath; this we con- clude is subsequent to optic nerve sheath dilatation caused by the transmission of in- tracranial pressure through the subarachnoid communication between the optic nerve sheath and the ...
Loss of the nerve fiber layer causes neuroretinal thinning and the resultant cupping or excavation. Disc hemorrhages that lie within the peripapillary retinal nerve fiber layer are known as Drance hemorrhages.
Medical Definition of peripapillary : situated around the optic papilla.
The American Academy of Ophthalmology defines visual impairment as the best-corrected visual acuity of less than 20/40 in the better eye, and the World Health Organization defines it as a presenting acuity of less than 6/12 in the better eye. The term blindness is used for complete or nearly complete vision loss.
Category-level tabular instruction at H54. - (Blindness and low vision) requires you to “code first” the underlying cause of the patient's blindness and low vision. Most codes within this category require a high level of detail in the category of vision loss, whether one or both eyes are affected, and to what degree.
If “blindness” or “low vision” in one eye is documented but the visual impairment category is not documented, assign a code from H54. 6-, Unqualified visual loss, one eye....Looking at new ICD-10-CM Codes for Blindness.CategoryWorse than:Equal to or better than:Blindness 33/60 1/20 (0.5) 20/4001/60* 1/50 (0.02) 5/300 (20/1200)6 more rows•Sep 25, 2017

DO NOT include the decimal point when electronically filing claims as it may be rejected. Some clearinghouses may remove it for you but to avoid having a rejected claim due to an invalid ICD-10 code, do not include the decimal point when submitting claims electronically.
H47.021 is a billable ICD code used to specify a diagnosis of hemorrhage in optic nerve sheath, right eye. A 'billable code' is detailed enough to be used to specify a medical diagnosis.
Ischemic optic neuropathy (ION) is the loss of structure and function of a portion of the optic nerve due to obstruction of blood flow to the nerve (i.e. ischemia). ION is typically classified as either anterior ischemic optic neuropathy or posterior ischemic optic neuropathy according to the part of the optic nerve that is affected. People affected will often complain of a loss of visual acuity and a visual field, the latter of which is usually in the superior or inferior field.
