What This Code Means
A condition where the retina splits into layers, but neither the specific eye nor the type of retinoschisis is documented.
Coding Tips
- •This is the least specific retinoschisis code; attempt to obtain documentation of which eye is affected to use a more specific code
- •Clarify with the provider whether this is juvenile-onset or age-related degenerative retinoschisis for more accurate coding
