About 08JL0ZZ

08JL0ZZ is the ICD-10-PCS code for a inspection procedure on the right extraocular muscle using an open approach. In ICD-10-PCS, inspection means visually and/or manually exploring a body part.

In plain terms, this corresponds to other diagnostic procedures on extraocular muscles and tendons, the ICD-9-CM procedure title it maps to (15.09).

For a different body part, codes include 08JM0ZZ (left extraocular muscle).

The same procedure with a different approach is coded 08JLXZZ (external).

It is an operating-room procedure in the MS-DRG logic for DRG 115 (Extraocular Procedures Except Orbit), under the surgical category “Extraocular Procedures Except Orbit”.

It has been valid since ICD-10-PCS took effect on October 1, 2015.
