Ghost vessels (corneal), right eye

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

What This Code Means

Remnants of blood vessels in the cornea of the right eye that appear as faint lines or shadows, typically from previous inflammation or injury.

Coding Tips

  • •Ghost vessels are non-functional remnants; confirm this specific finding is documented rather than active neovascularization
  • •Document any associated conditions that led to the ghost vessel formation
