What This Code Means

The tear drainage channel (canaliculus) on the right eye becomes abnormally narrowed, restricting tear flow.

Coding Tips

  • •Stenosis can result from trauma, inflammation, or chronic eye conditions; document the etiology if known
  • •May require probing or surgical intervention if causing significant symptoms
