H27.113
BillableSubluxation of lens, bilateral
This code does not map to an HCC category in any model (V28, V24, ESRD, RxHCC).
What This Code Means
The lens of both eyes has shifted from its normal position but remains partially in place, rather than being completely dislocated. This condition can affect vision and may require medical evaluation or treatment.
Coding Tips
- •Verify documentation specifies 'bilateral' involvement of both eyes before assigning this code; unilateral cases require different codes (H27.11- for right eye, H27.12- for left eye)
- •Investigate the underlying cause (trauma, Marfan syndrome, Ehlers-Danlos syndrome, homocystinuria, etc.) as this may require additional coding and affects treatment planning
