H27.139
BillablePosterior dislocation of lens, unspecified eye
This code does not map to an HCC category in any model (V28, V24, ESRD, RxHCC).
What This Code Means
The lens has moved backward from its normal position, but the specific eye affected is not documented.
Coding Tips
- •Use only when documentation does not specify which eye is affected; query provider for laterality when possible
- •This is a less specific code and should be avoided if eye can be determined from medical record
