About ICD-9-CM 930.9

930.9 is an ICD-9-CM diagnosis code for foreign body in unspecified site on external eye. ICD-9-CM was retired for U.S. claims on October 1, 2015, when ICD-10-CM took over.

The CMS General Equivalence Mappings translate it to 3 ICD-10-CM codes, such as T15.90XA (Foreign body on external eye, part unspecified, unspecified eye, initial encounter), T15.91XA (Foreign body on external eye, part unspecified, right eye, initial encounter) and T15.92XA (Foreign body on external eye, part unspecified, left eye, initial encounter). All of these are approximate matches, so review the record to pick the right one.
