ICD-10-PCS 08T Medical and Surgical: Eye Resection
The ICD-10-PCS root operation Resection (code 08T) refers to the surgical removal of all or a portion of a body part. In the Medical and Surgical section for the Eye, this operation involves excising specific ocular structures for therapeutic or diagnostic reasons.
This eye resection can target various parts such as the Right or Left Eye itself, Cornea, Vitreous, Iris, Lens, and Extraocular Muscles. Approaches vary and include the External Approach for surface structures like the Cornea (e.g., 08T8XZZ
for right cornea) and Percutaneous Approach for internal parts like the Vitreous (e.g., 08T43ZZ
). Other targets include the Upper and Lower Eyelids and the Lacrimal Gland or Duct, with diverse approaches including Open, Percutaneous, and Via Natural or Artificial Opening Endoscopic methods (e.g., 08TX8ZZ
for right lacrimal duct endoscopic resection). Accurate coding of these resections is essential to document the extent and technique of ocular surgery.
