Disorders of visual pathways in (due to) inflammatory disorders, unspecified side

What This Code Means

Problems with the visual pathways caused by inflammation when the specific side of the brain affected is not documented or is bilateral.

Coding Tips

  • •Use this code only when laterality cannot be determined from the medical record
  • •Query the provider if possible to determine right, left, or bilateral involvement for more specific coding
