H33.129
BillableParasitic cyst of retina, unspecified eye
This code does not map to an HCC category in any model (V28, V24, ESRD, RxHCC).
What This Code Means
A cyst in the retina caused by a parasitic infection, but the specific eye affected is not documented.
Coding Tips
- •This is the least specific parasitic cyst code; query documentation to determine if right eye, left eye, or bilateral involvement is present
- •Always code the underlying parasitic infection separately when parasitic cysts are present
