A hereditary condition affecting the inner lining of the cornea (endothelium) in the left eye, causing progressive vision problems.

Coding Tips

  • •Verify left eye laterality is clearly documented in the clinical record before coding
  • •Consider whether the patient has bilateral involvement that should be coded separately
