Acquired absence of eye

This code does not map to an HCC category in any model (V28, V24, ESRD, RxHCC).

What This Code Means

A person who has lost one or both eyes due to surgery, injury, or disease. This is a permanent condition documenting the absence of the eye(s).

Coding Tips

•Use this code for post-enucleation or post-evisceration status; specify laterality if only one eye is affected
•This is a status code (Z code) used to indicate a past medical history, not an active disease process
