ICD-10 code for vitreous body disorder

The ICD-10-CM code for vitreous body disorder is H43.9 (Unspecified disorder of vitreous body). The official index lists 1 more specific code, so check the documentation for details such as type, cause, site or severity before settling on H43.9.

Within H43, choose H43.9 (Unspecified disorder of vitreous body) only when documentation doesn't support a more specific option: vitreous prolapse (H43.0), vitreous hemorrhage (H43.1), crystalline deposits in vitreous body (H43.2), other vitreous opacities (H43.3) and other disorders of vitreous body (H43.8).

It is not a CC or MCC, so as a secondary diagnosis it doesn't change the MS-DRG severity level.

In MS-DRG v44.0, it is part of the grouping logic for DRG 124 (Other Disorders of the Eye with MCC or Thrombolytic Agent, relative weight 1.2471) and DRG 125 (Other Disorders of the Eye without MCC, relative weight 0.7702), in MDC 02 (Diseases and Disorders of the Eye), as a principal or secondary diagnosis. The DRG a claim lands in depends on the principal diagnosis, procedures and any CC/MCC secondary diagnoses.
