What This Code Means
Streaks or lines that appear in the macula due to breaks in the elastic tissue layer of the eye, which can affect central vision.
Coding Tips
- •Angioid streaks are a specific structural finding; ensure this diagnosis is clearly documented by the ophthalmologist
- •This code does not require laterality specification as it describes a bilateral condition by nature
