Stenosis of right lacrimal sac

This code does not map to an HCC category in any model (V28, V24, ESRD, RxHCC).

What This Code Means

A narrowing or blockage of the tear sac on the right side, which is a small pouch that collects tears before they drain into the nose.

Coding Tips

  • •The lacrimal sac is located between the lacrimal canaliculi and the nasolacrimal duct
  • •Verify right-sided location and confirm stenosis of the sac itself rather than adjacent structures
